Me and my buddy Dakota. It was Daddy's turn to go to horseback riding camp.

Kouba holding Alex's horse Blitz and Maggie on Ghost.
Blitz was Alex and Kat's ultimate souvenir from the trip.
I would have loved to have shoved Dakota into the overhead bin on my flight home.

I must have been real bad :)

A short rest before an early flight home from Durango
The view down to the barn and arena. They call the walk up the stairs from the barn "cardiac hill". Even I got winded for the first couple of days coming up the stairs. The altitude at the ranch is 7500 feet above sea level and my three short mile run in the morning was challenging too. It was more of a trot than a canter :)
