    Moonlight Ride

    Sunday, December 23, 2007, 02:29 AM EST [General]

    We went for a moonlight ride tonight.  Well...a night ride.  Even though the moon is close to full, we had so much cloud cover that you couldn't see the moon.  The ride was very nice.  It was 60°F with relatively low humidity considering the clouds and rain we have had over the last few days.  We rode out to a graveyard in the woods and back.  It was only about an hour, but the friend I was riding with needed to get home to a teenager that had injured her foot earlier today.

    I did some mileage in the pasture before the night ride.  We put in about 3 trotting miles.  The night ride was only about 2 1/2 miles.  I ended up trotting a good bit of that because of the difference between the length of our horses' legs.  So we ended up with a pretty decent conditioning work out tonight. 

    I so long for the days of daylight savings time.
