My riding is going ok when I can get the weather to behave itself. Other than that, not much has been happening. I went on a trail ride on Friday, and that was a lot of fun. I had meantioned it a few posts back. There was still a lot of snow and ice and muck on the ground because the sun hasn't been able to get through the trees to melt it all and dry the ground out. And we ended up having to climb the biggest snow drift I have ever seen in my life to get from the street back onto the trail. Hehe. I almost came off. At the top, instead of sliding back down, my horse thought it would be great fun to jump off the top instead. Cross country anyone? :-)

My trainer has lots of trails that go out back behind her property, and the all seem to make a big loop and cross over eachother at the same time. I can't quite explain it. They're nice, but they're narrow and full of roots and logs and they slope all over the place. Of course, they're trails. That's what they're supposed to do. :-) They really emphasize the difference between level and not so level ground, and make you really appreciate the level ground when you get to it. :-)
