It rained a good chunk of the morning. And not just rain, but stormed. We had lightning and thunder! But then it cleared up around 2 pm and wasn't too chilly at all. The arena's were closed at Ashland and I wasn't feeling particularly motivated to do much. BUT... I did decide to go for a hack at Ashland. I debated which horse to bring, but since Funny and I got to go yesterday, Dan seemed like a good choice. And then Kelli decided to come too, once I kicked her in the pants to get motivated. ;) But Marvin does better with Dan, so.. Dan it was.
Luckily the truck drove fine again and didn't give me any issues. Yay! I'm not sure if it's fixed or still needs to be worked on but... at least so far it's functional. We got to Ashland and they were busy! Quite a few people were there XC schooling or hacking.
We got on and hit the trails. We tried to avoid downhills and I was going to cut it shorter but Kelli suggested we cross the creek, so we did. :) It was a nice hack. We had fun and I think Dan missed Marvin because he was chewing on him every chance he got. He led most of the way but at the very end let Marvin get ahead of him while he was snacking on some green grass. And then he didn't mind and let Marvin lead the rest of the way home.
It was a nice breather. And nice to see Kelli and Marvin again. It's been awhile.
