My mom and sis came up to ride a few day ago

Sure as hell beats the DC suburbs...

You know what's funny... DC is my favorite place in the US to visit! I've been to DC over a dozen times, it's a long way from Iowa, but I love it! I couldn't live there though, way too busy/nosy for me. I hate living 20 miles from a city with a Walmart/chain store, but I'll deal with it

I'm in love with how the filly's dappled back has come up with her age.

We love her dapples too! They really make her unique!

Definitely cool to visit. Here's a rolling tour of my old commute to work... http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14869

That was when I worked in north west DC. I work in Arlington now which is just outside DC.

It's funny cause after you live here a while, you eventually don't even notice all the monuments and stuff...

You have some beautiful looking horses there. I also went for a ride this past weekend as we branded about 50 head of cattle on my family ranch in south eastern Alberta. Pretty much prairies as far as the eye can see there as well.

My horse is a 17 year old bay gelding. My sister's boyfriend grew up on a horse ranch, and has been raising and breaking them for riding since he was young.

Gorgeous horses! Tora is an amazing colour! Love buckskins, especially dappled!

I bet! It's crazy to think you could get so used to seeing that stuff you don't notice it anymore!

Thank you! I wish I could go ride in a cattle drive or a branding! That would be so cool! There are "cattle drive vacations" a couple states from me but they are $1,000 a person!!! So I've given up on that idea, lol.

Thank you! Tora is awesome! We are very happy with the way she turned out!
