With weather warming up more and more every day, and temps in the 70's today were perfect for our ride. We started out today going in the same direction as the Riding Stable tours from across the road, but we quickly lost our way again, once again trying to follow trails that were incredibly poorly marked on the map (which is particularly ironic because on the map they warn to "avoid getting lost by staying on marked trails"!) In any event, though we had decided that today would be a shorter ride, it ended up being about the same length because of all the missed turns and lack of landmarks. We even crossed paths of an old rundown horse camp in the middle of the park, further evidence that the only thing this park needs is a bit of better management, which is so often the case. I'm certain that an ambitious public servant would be able to rally enough volunteers to spiff up a place like this in no time, but that seems to be a quality sadly lacking these days. Oh well. When we got back we gave the horses a quick bath, hoping they would stay clean for half a minute (wishful thinking, of course), put away everything else we weren't going to need in preparation for our departure tomorrow. Tired from the ride, so we went to bed early, knowing we were getting up in the morning!
