Horseback riding

So, today Sammie G was cool enough to show me the ropes on horseback riding out on his farm. What to say about the experience other than the fact that it was mind blowingly awesome?
Well, horses are a lot larger than I expected, although his were really friendly so it was okay. The one I got to ride was called Mack (sp?) and he kept trying to lick/eat my fleece... yum :p

There was still snow on the ground so we sort've froze, but it was all good. He let me try a walk and a trot =D it was literally the most awesome feeling ever!
I got to groom and help tack up Mack, ahhh! It's a lot of effort, but definitely worth it.
Had to throw away my shoes afterward though coz they got really really gross and muddy haha oh well.

Got home and took a hot shower, then after dinner I did a tonne of baking:
- batch of banana chocolate chunk muffins
- batch of cinnamon pear strudel muffins
- batch of peanut butter & chocolate cookies
- 1/2 batch raisin scones
- 1/2 batch cinnamon raisin scones
- pancake mix for tmrw morning =]

Good day.
