50 Years Between Horseback Rides

Above, during Monday's ride.

The horseback ride on Monday in Monument Valley was only the second time in my life doing so. The first time was 50 years ago on Catalina Island when I was at the ripe old age of 20. 

A friend said on Facebook I should opt for the horseback ride instead of taking the sunrise tour of Monument Valley again. He said I should do it while I still can. (Ask me 10 years from now if I am still able to do so when I'm 80.)

The horse I was given was a mare name Eva, a palomino. She turned out to be easy to control. I was able to direct her whenever she got off the trail or when she stopped to munch on some plants. It helped watching a lot of westerns for tips on controlling horses. 

It was a 90-minute ride from the KOA Kampground that covered around 3-4 miles.
