Magic and I went to ride the Old River Trail on the Buffalo at Ponca today. The river was too high (14 inches airspace at Ponca Bridge) and everybody had left when I got there and I was 10 minutes early. Anyway I found Susan House in Ponca and we rode up above Ponca to some of her family’s old places. Bill Kenter, Margorie Heacock and Ginger Richard also rode with us. It is a steep climb up the hill. Magic was a little\u00a0fidgety at first but\u00a0settled down and walked up the hill and worked up a sweat.\u00a0I think the horses enjoy these social trail rides. They like to see all the other horses. Occasionally a horse, usually a mare, shows irritation about the other horses but most of them get along like they are old friends. It seems to improve Magic’s attitude, even days later. We went down the Clark Creek Spring Trail to the spring and returned. It was a nice ride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
