A sunny day.

This morning was bright and sunny after a couple of days of horrible wet weather. The sunshine can coax even the most reluctant body into action, so I went for a ride on Corky. She was pretty sluggish going out, but woke up on the return journey. It was only a short ride, about 40 minutes and she seemed ok in her boots. I've been asked to start riding out with a friend who lives just down the road, so I need to get her a little fitter.

I gave Anky a good grooming, she has a lovely thick shiny coat and is definitely looking in better condition, so despite her occasional bouts of belly ache I'm hoping she's slowly improving. I walked her in-hand up to the school, she was very calm so we did a few minutes in the school and then walked back home. I hope it stays fine, I really don't like the rain!!
