You Can Lead a Horse to Water....









But you cant make it drink. This is a true statement!! I learned it when Judy and Christina went to the lake to give the horses water and mine would not drink. I kept saying, is there something I am doing wrong??? LOL. epiphany of sorts.

Well you can't go to Dallas and not ride the trails. The only problem is ...when you are in the middle of the woods, there are certain questions Judy should not ask in front of me. What kind of critters are lurking? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Christina our trail guide proceeds to say, poisonous snakes, cayote, and COUGAR. She wasn't talking about me and JUDY. lol. and then found paw prints to prove they walked the very trail we were riding. Now is as good a time as any to learn to lope a horse or trot very very fast!

What a beautiful ride it was. Kinda felt like a scene from the movies. We went out for 3 hours and saw some very beautiful landscaping. Our Guide Christina owns Agave Hurricane Trail Company. She was a lot of fun, and did you know she could jump logs? shhhh.. Don't tell her mama. We also saw these pretty little pink flowers calls Princess brush. Guess who spotted that? lol.
A big plus to hanging with Judy is I now have a skill and a passion I never knew existed. I rode Pina Colada, a very large horse, that trust me scared me to know I was being put on the biggest horse of all. But this huge white gorgeous animal loved me and I was completely comfortable. I have come a long way since first riding in El Paso. If you are in Dallas look up Christina at Agave and hit the trails.

I put a little video clip to Clairde Dirval vocals since this video was not easy to watch in its original format. I'm not saying Vende Latte and her friends were walking and walking and walking in front of the camera. LOL. Hate to waste such a pretty song so I used on the pretty pictures we took. Enjoy. Tried to embed the video here but it errors. View on Youtube.
