i have had better rides on horses..........today was awful and it was not Berry the horse's fault.

i get motion sick and did not take a bonine b4 the ride.
so i was green and sick for the hour.

then to top it off while dismounting i was so queasy and dizzy i just fell out of the saddle and landed in a pile of leaves on my back. (the horse is huge 17 1/2 hands) so it was a long fall. (draft/quarterhorse cross)

but i was fine just filthy and kinda enjoyed laying there next to a pile of poop, looking up at the gorgeous fall colors and the bright blue sky.

never a dull moment.

happy 3 day wknd all!

Hope you are felling better.
