today's ride

It was pretty cool today; in fact, when I was down on the river bottoms where the wind blows unhindered, I was wishing for my coveralls.   But when Blue and I were poking around in secret places, we were out of the wind, and I was quite comfortable.

We checked out the ghost farm first, and I took a few pictures there that I'll perhaps use later on my Blogger site.  Then we cut across the bottoms.  I planned to go on home, but I noticed a path through the brush that I'd never noticed before, although I've ridden past that spot dozens of times.

The path was made by four-wheelers, and it made an excellent horse trail.  I found some surprises along the way that made me smile. 

This is my favorite kind of ride, and I get the impression that Blue enjoys himself too, when we're nosing around, discovering new things.

(AOL took the pictures off this entry and many others; I took the liberty of putting them back, on this one.)

I just added these same pictures back for the 3rd time!  Good grief, AOL.  You are making blogger look more attractive by the day!

You are actually making me miss the midwest.  I have to make it home to pet those lovely animals that you have.  I am invited, aren't I?  Anne

The pictures are gone. I will come back tomorrow and see if they are here.  But, the description of the ride sounds nice.

I think it's putting the pictures in a box... that is some kind of widget and it seems to be having a glitch... I've had no problem with -full- size pictures using the permalink feature, but I've seen a couple of other people having troubles with the whole bunch of pictures in a box thingy... Have you told Joe? Might be a good idea to drop a comment over there.

Wow, I just happened to catch the pictures here (they weren't last night) and thought I'd better look quick.  Enjoyed the woods!  It's been a long time since I had the privilege of spending time there and searching out secrets.

That also looks like a great place for a quiet walk alone :)
