Is It REALLY Almost Over?

Cooler temperatures over the last couple of weeks have made me stop and ask myself just that question! My, where did the summer go? The mornings are crisp, with frost in the meadow. More than a few of the guests have asked about extra blankets and checking out their room heaters! Today we were blessed with some light rain in the morning but now the sun is coming out and I look forward to a beautiful afternoon. It is nice to hear the few brave souls who dared the showers this morning to ride come back and say "IT WAS GORGEOUS". That's the thing about really loving to ride, you enjoy it rain or shine!
With only a few more days left in our season it will be sad to walk away from our favorite horse (mine being "Carlos") , but they have certainly earned the long winter break that lies ahead.
Again we are so grateful for the wonderful guests that shared time with us this summer and hope our paths cross again. But...just because our season is winding down that does not mean we will be "slackin' " in our jobs.....we are looking forward to our last week of guests and "going out w/a bang" !!
