Weekly rides

I have been trying to figure out a way to get more riding in without making my husband sit around for an hour doing nothing. Our church solved the problem for me. The church has an arena. That was the first thing they built after raising the tent. I have used the arena a couple of times but feel weird going by myself or making my husband go. So today at church, the pastor announced that at 1 pm on Sundays, there would be guitar lessons. My husband plays the guitar some but wants to learn more. I want time to ride my horse there. Voila, I now have 1 hour horse ride built in every week. I rode around and around the arena, around barrels, in and out of the roping setup (you know, where the horses wait for the cattle to be released).

My pastor informed me from the pulpit that I needed to spend more time on my horse. When your pastor says to do something (as long as it's not against God's Word) you do it. Thanks Pastor Terry. :)
