So Violet and I have recently taken up riding....ON HORSES! It's crazy! And it's also a lot harder than you might expect. You see people riding and think "that looks so easy, they are just sitting there.." No. They. Aren't. The first time I rode, I hadn't been around horses in a 100 years and 1. Forgot how big they are and 2. Forgot how bouncy it all is. I felt like I was going to fall off at least 15 times and ended up in a heap in the dirt when I tried to dismount. Still! It was the most fun I've had in a long time and Violet (as with all little girls the world over) absolutely LOVES it, so we go riding once a week on Saturdays. Of course ,after riding, unwinding some Mirror Pond Pale Ale is a must. Well it was a must today because that's what we had in the fridge. Mirror pond is a pretty non offensive brew and always a winner on a warm day. Cheers!
