Well I am going to just get to the most recent rides which were over Labor Day weekend. On Saturday afternoon I met some friends at Stephens Forest. They were camping that weekend and by the time I got there they had run home to feed real fast so Satin and I went solo on a couple of shorter trails while we were waiting for their return.
It was overcast that day like it might rain but it didn't and kept nice and cool!
When they got back, the 3 of us had a nice long ride and I managed to get us off on a deer trail that ended and we got lost but no for long we found the dried creek bed and followed it until we hit the level B dirt road. I was so impressed with Satin some of the stuff we went thru she did great!

On Sunday I stayed home and got some things done in the morning and then got Levi out and did some playing around on the barrel and pole pattern, some groundwork over brush and logs and I even made her stand on a upright log lol
and for the most part she did good. About halfway thru our playing around I remembered to turn on the Endomondo so we only have this partial map of our ride lol, we did some cantering up the road and walking back, cantering up the road again and walking back so you will see on that map we went back and forth a few times ;) She got a pretty good workout.
Then on Monday I picked up my friend Courtney and her mare Lu and we headed to Stephens Forest. I'm thinking Satin is a smidge taller than Lu ;)
We had a really great time but our horses were pretty tired and sweaty when we done but they really seemed to enjoy the ride and each other :) Our biggest peeve was all the beer, pop and food wrappers that were along the trails :( Map of our ride on Monday Sept. 3rd
