Here we have a very uncomfortable L on Smokey... and not doing too badly, considering that he's never been on a horse in his life..
A quick lesson in steering and we're off.. About 30 minutes into the ride, though, it sort of went south. L was trying to break a branch that was across the trail, but it wouldn't break.. by that time if he had let it go, it would have sprang back and slingshot-ed me right off Trigger, because we were right behind.. so he held on. Smokey kept going, and L just kind of got dragged off the horse.
He landed on his wrist and then his back and he didn't get up for a while. :-[ Not such a great start for his career as a horse rider! He is now stiff and sore and has his wrist wrapped in an ace bandage (this after ice...
..and epsom salts at home). He is cranky, what with his parents coming to visit this weekend and all his big plans (possibly) having to be reconsidered, since he certainly won't be wielding a hammer or a lawnmower or a weedeater or anything else with his right hand.. I hope it isn't broken, but we won't know whether it is bad enough for him to go to the doctor until tomorrow.
And so we're all feeling like THIS.
Later: Fireworks?

Trigger's thinking, "Thas right, I'm still The Man wearin' the big shoes in this barn. And Smokey, thanks for hookin' me up ... but at least try to make it LOOK like an accident next time."
:-)
