The RI SPCA Trail Ride

Yesterday we took part in the annual SPCA Trail Ride at Goddard Park here in RI. The park features beautiful trails along the bluffs above Narragansett Bay. You can go down and ride on parts of the beaches at different times. Duncan is not into water so we don't do that.

We had a GREAT ride, both he and Jupiter, his appy barnmate went well.

There were 130 riders and we raised $11.000.00 in support for helping animals and people who need assistance in taking care of their pets. This has become the largest fund raiser the SPCA has.

Thursday am we will be headed out to the Horse Park of NJ for a Sharon Camarillo Barrel Clinic. This is the 2nd time I have ridden with her and I am looking forward to the 3 days.

I met 2 new STB folks yesterday at the ride. One young woman just got her mare last November and the other young woman has had hers for a while, it's always nice to meet new STB folks.

On another not, SPHO Maine held a fun show to raise money for their Ambassador Program and I am told they did very well. Duncan donated for a couple of classes.

So, the next few days are very busy if I don't get back here I'll be in NJ riding my butt off.,

Stay safe.
