Saturday, October 20, 2012 - Ride Day at Robbins Nest Farm

 After doing some computer work during the morning, we finally saddled up the horses for a quick ride around the property. Headed out along the back fence, and worked our way over the railroad tracks (Clio was a bit reluctant, but wasn’t about to be left behind, so she eventually followed her boy), and then down to the river, where we found the lovely spot the owner had told us about earlier, several hitching posts and picnic tables right by the wide and shallow James River. Looks like a great spot to hang out in the summer. Horses took a drink from the river, and we proceeded to circle a wide fallow field, getting in several canters along the way, enjoying the perfect weather and the gorgeous fall foliage. A nice 90 minute ride, just the ticket for a relaxing day. Tomorrow, we move again!
