Weather: Partly cloudy skies, slightly chilly.
After a nice lunch by the scenic French Broad River, we headed up to Sandy Bottom Trail Rides, where we were introduced to our equine friends. Casey and Jena helped a couple of the horses to improve their breath while we waited on the other group that would be accompanying us on the trail to get ready.
After some initial and very brief instructions, we were paired with our mounts, and the real adventure began.
The horses took frequent snack breaks, walking over to the hill and munching on grass and leaves.
Toward the halfway point of the ride, we road along the ridgeline above some cattle fields.
And here everyone is, back safe and sound from another adventure. And now for this month's awards!Craziest horse - Casey's horse - Fat Boy
