So many times I have been asked why I ride mules.
Huh.
Well. I have 4 mules that I can ride and one that needs starting under saddle.
The real story is that a gazillion years ago I met a man who rode a small mule named Fred. I was riding Cheyanne an Arab-Quarter cross who I loved to death. She and I were a good team.
The man told me that Cheyanne would make a good 'mule momma'.
Anyway. That is how our Rich and my Romance began. A mule named Fred and a grade horse named Cheyanne.
I started commuting to his place and riding with him on his mules.
The rest is history. And Cheyanne produced Sunshine.
And later...
Sundance...
I fell in love with mules and their interesting ways.
I like my red headed half sisters.
I like riding. I've decided that riding is a way of reducing stress and improving mental health.
What can I say?
Here I was on Mica tonight...
So there it is. Mules... summer... evening. Hubby can watch TV and I can have an adventure.
It works.
Just mules. The 4 legged kind not those that need a gas engine.
Mica is indeed a handsome mule. Love these stories!
