Get to the barn and hope that Josie hasn't taken her shoe the rest of the way off. There goes all my plans of riding for my vacation. C helped me after I hammered the nail back in to crimp the nail. P borrowed me a pair of bell boots so she wouldn't step on the shoe. I will be keeping bell boots on her from now on. Oh, another reason to go shopping for horsey stuff :)

As we were going on a trail ride, I rode in my western saddle. She was very good. The bugs were horrible. I put her little crochet ear cover on. I had on my jean jacket and chaps for protection. Having not covered my face when we got to the woods the vampires were going for my face. I decided not to use our new red saddlebags. Didn't want Josie getting crazy with that loose shoe.

The pups got to come along this time. Wyatt was too cute looking up at each rider until he found me. As we crossed the water I looked back to see four little JRT's swimming across. Oh, how I wish I had brought a camera. Another thing to get Josie use to. I was way relaxed and we had a nice albeit short ride.
