Jeff and I have visited her in Denver (Aurora) several times. She came up over the summer last year and stayed for about a month. We had a lot of fun when she was here and one of the big occasions was that she rode a horse for the first time! I was shocked to find out that she'd never ridden and I assured her that we'd fix that! So, once again, Bo gave someone their very first ride on a horse.

On her second ride, we did some horseback archery. She had done some archery on the ground before, but obviously never on a horse. We had a great day and killed a piece of foam insulation many times over. (the target I keep at the barn)
It'll be good to see her again tomorrow. For me the trip is going to be a "turn n' burn" - there and back in a day - about 13-14 hours of driving. It'll be a long day, but I've done it several times before and thankfully the weather is supposed to be nice!
I wish you were staying a bit longer! I also live in Aurora and I'd love to meet you!
ReplyDeleteWow, talk about a small world! That would be so fun to meet up! What are you doing in the morning? (haha - yeah, pretty short notice I know) ;) I do get down to the Denver area fairly often. I've got family there and I'll be taking my friend back home after a little while too. (I'm hoping that will be a more relaxed trip without the Stock Show looming up here!) We should definitely plan on getting together. :D
DeleteThis morning was busy, but I'd love to meet up next time (or the time after). If you come on a weekday, I can borrow a horse and we could go trail riding.
DeleteA trail ride would be a ton of fun! We should plan on that for sure. :D I'm not sure yet when I'll be headed back down, but I'll let you know and hopefully we can get together! :)
