Brushy Creek One of the many views
seen from a morning ride. ~ Unfortunately much of
this area is now under water due the construction
of a large lake and dam.
~ The equestrian folks put up a nice fight, but
were defeated.
Steamboat Rock This is an
all day ride that happens every year the first
Saturday in October. ~ There can be as many as 300 horses. ~ This day there were about 250. ~ We ride 4 hours in the morning, stop for lunch and 4 hours back. ~ We cross the Iowa River 12 times and this was one of the easier crossings
:-).
Steamboat Rock We (Twister and
I) had just crossed and were waiting for the rest
of our group to catch up.
June 2001 Twister and I and Michele and Clipper.
June 2001 Twister and I went down this to take a photo of Michele and Randy at the top. There is a nice creek just behind us. We haven't done much trail riding lately, as it's just been too hot. Hopefully the weather will change soon.
January 27, 2002 Twister, Corryn and her horse Shiloh. The temperature was 62 this day. Odd for Iowa.
