When Halli Lindley feels the need to slow the pace down a little and unwind, she'll invite her family and friends to come along for a leisurely paced horseback ride. One where you can check out the woods along the trail and notice things that slowing down allows you to see. Like grass that you and your horse could get lost in, it's really that high! Or the birds and critters running and flitting around alongside you as your ride the trails. I'm thinking it would be a great way to scout out berry patches, too, so you can return later for picking.

It's been ages since I've ridden a horse. There used to be at least two Horse Back Riding stables in the Lake Linden area when I was in school and you could go out there and "rent" a horse for the day. They'd take you on a trail ride that was similar to Halli's ride here today, along trails in the woods. Thanks for sharing your ride with us Halli and helping to bring back memories of riding as a kid.

Just in the nick of time.......

My apologies for failing to get these outstanding photos on earlier in the day. Many thanks to all the photographers who have kept the Pasty Cam rolling all these years. It has been an unusual Summer, with some days starting so early, and filled with so many tasks, that we have come close to breaking our 15+ year record of publishing every day. Thanks to Mary for preparing each day's Glimpse of Life in the U.P., and we'll re-double our effort to send it your way at the beginning of the day :o)

Nice photo's, I should of been a cowboy, I could of learned to rope and ride, wearing my six shooter, riding my pony on a cattle drive!

Looks like fun. Haven't been horseback riding in years.

Sorry to repeat myself, but I LOVE HORSES!!
