Megan riding Poco
The day before we headed home we went on a two hour horseback ride in the Mammoth National Park. Before we left on vacation I had found the number for J and J Stables on a web site for cabin rentals. I called them up to see about their trips and prices and was amazed to find out that they had 2 hour rides for twenty five bucks a person. I was hopeful but a little skeptical too. I thought what kind of half dead horses are we gonna ride for that low price? Well lucky for us the horses were happy and healthy, the cowboy was missing a few teeth but he was nice and friendly and took care of Megan as if she were his own. It was the best horse riding I have done that did not involve Cowboy Bill's horses. We actually got to ride and trot our horses and even did a little "off trail riding" when we came to a place where there was a tree down across the trail. Megan did an awesome job, it was her first time alone on a horse. Cowboy Nick had her horses lead rope tied to his saddle. He told her she could try riding by herself on the way back but she was happy just to be on "the tow rope". Paige of course looked like the little pro that she is after her riding lessons last year.
Paige riding Jasper and Mike is behind her on Larry the horse.
