Murphy visits the farm

Our first endurance ride is in 2 weeks.  Tomorrow was planned for a good 15ish miles as our last prep ride.  Was.  This evening when the horses came in, it was discovered that Misti had a little cut on her shoulder.  6 staples and $260 later, I now have a horse that needs 10 days off.  Luckily, we don’t leave for the ride until 13 days from now.  So, I guess I’ll have A LOT of horse at the ride since she will be in a limited turnout and not riding for the next 10 days.

It looks like I’ll be riding King for a family trail ride tomorrow.  While we don’t think this will cause Misti to withdraw from our first ride, I hope Mr. Murphy doesn’t take that as a challenge to cause something worse!
