It's my birthday!

 

Look how silver and shiny Z's back is!

We started the morning with poodle cuts, thinking it would warm up by the time we could ride. Um no. It was still in the 30s. This is only the second time we have ever been able to ride on my birthday; it was cold and damp and the rain is coming, but it was awesome. :) Fall colors are still vibrant--both on the trees and on the ground. We just took a little turn around the ranch and had mostly warm toes and fingers. I said the best presents I ever bought myself were Ziva and Jupiter, but I should have included my chinks! lol.

My birthday wish is for a healthy and happy year ahead with lots more time in the saddle with my friends.
