Walking/Hiking with our minis and ponies - Mile Tracker!

[Capriole]

I pulled a back muscle Thursday...so didn't take Prince for a walk ( but the weather was considerably cooler which they seemed to like and Prince and Kazoo spent quite a bit of time chasing each other around)
Fri. walked him around the property because my back still hurt...I was going to take him for a walk, but if I tripped again I would probably yelp/scream and that would really freak him out .

(I also heard to always hold onto the rope... unfortunately he jumped back and spun around so hard he pulled it out of my hand....my fault for using a regular lead rope instead of the longe line I usually use....luckily, we weren't too far from home and he got there uninjured)

 

[HersheyMint]

Gosh, sorry you hurt. I hope you feel better.

1.5 miles. Took both horses out. Neighbor walked with me.

 

[Capriole]

HersheyMint, thank you so much...yeah, it's getting better, it will just take a few days.

 

[Cayuse]

Glad you are improving Capriole, slow and steady wins the race.

 

[MerMaeve]

.85 miles for Miss Squirt this afternoon! A gorgeous fall day.

 

[Cayuse]

20 minutes for Oatie today, 20 minutes Sunday, 10 monday.
Cappy 20 minutes today.

That's...um...Why'd you trade places with Kasia, Zelda? You're not even a horse!

Someone was a bit confused today, or rather, both of us were confused. Lol

 

[Marsha Cassada]

Took both horses for a walk yesterday. I don't know why I keep doing that, as it is not a pleasure. Dapper Dan is slow and Billy is fast. 1 mile. When will I learn?

 

[Cayuse]

20 minutes for Peanut and 15 for Oatie today. Cold! Winter is here.

 

[MaryFlora]

Yes indeed winter is here! Right now it is 3 degrees. Yes, three degrees. It is supposed to warm up to more normal temperatures next week.

Our walking days are over for now. The ground is like iron with about 4” of snow on top. Plus my husband fell off a ladder with an extended stay in the hospital and currently in the hospital rehab unit. He is moving very slowly in the right direction but it will be weeks more before he is moving more easily. We are very grateful for the excellent care and prayers sent our way.

You all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy your animal buddies of all species!

 

[HersheyMint]

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. I will keep you both in prayer for quick healing and a bit warmer weather. Stay safe!

MaryFlora, wondering about you and your husband too

 

[MaryFlora]

Thank you Cayuse and HersheyMint! He came home Wednesday after 30 days in hospital and rehab with physical therapy to continue for awhile. Slow but steady progress and we are grateful!

 

[HersheyMint]

So glad he is home. I will support his progress with steady prayers for you both.

 

[MaryFlora]

Thank you so much HersheyMint!

I told my husband about your guy's ladder incident. He was on the ladder getting down Christmas decorations and noticed he had the feet turned around. Gave himself a fright.
