Close to home and a GREAT Day

Two days ago.  It was warm(er) and the cold front was moving in so we (Blue, Lexi and myself) escaped for a short jaunt - into the back (West) 40 (maybe closer to 60).  They were both as good as gold, possibly more relaxed than usual because they were right next to each other (I ponied Lexi to give her exercise).

As we rounded the corner of the corn field, it was approaching sunset.  The sun was working to get through the bare branches of the trees still in winter stage, over the bridge on the road right next to our field of play and bouncing off the water for a great end of the day.  What made this day even better than normal was that it was the first time in almost 9 months I had been able to ride after getting on from the ground multiple times pain free (at least joint wise - my muscles still protested) and finish up the ride without pain lingering and making the evening only comfortable with strong drug assistance!  A great day indeed!
