So I am pretty sure that most of you back home will be quite surprised by this post. I, Sherrie Burke, rode a horse and loved it!!!
Our friends Jeff & Donna bought 2 horses for their girls for Christmas and we were finally able to ride one of them. We met Jeff up at the range and got to meet 'Dot'. I was a little nervous at first, but that didn't last very long. You will notice that I didn't wear the best shoes for riding (but in my defense I wasn't planning on riding the horse). My flip flops kept slipping which made it a little difficult to keep my feet in the stirrups (those of you who have ever rode a horse know that you have to kick the horse, with your legs in the stirrups, on her sides to get her to move). But I finally figured it out and got her to a trot. She was tired from doing a cattle drive that morning so we didn't ride long. I got to brush her down and pet her too. She was beautiful!
Below is a picture of me riding Dot.
Happy riding everyone...Giddy-Up Cowgirl!!!
