Crochet Me Crazy

53 riders today. I'm so proud of Alison. She's basically running the rides with the other wrangler only supporting her. (He's an great horse man but he just doesn't know our horses) There was at least two rides today that she just started loading by herself because the other guide had disappeared. We have to keep moving if we want to keep the rides on schedule. They catch and saddle about 14 horses every morning. She labeled the saddles with the horses name because the other wrangler doesn't know who's saddle belongs to who yet. She's doing most of the catching of the horses because they run away from the new wrangler. She's decided which horses to use on the rides and which riders to match with which horses. This is not an easy job and dealing with the various types of people, ages, and personalities that show up. Then, they take the tourist on a 45 minute ride on a 2 miles trail. The have been doing that 10 am until 5 pm every single hour for the past two days with no breaks. All the rides have at least 4 and sometimes up to 11 tourist they take out. They have to make sure the people and the horses do what they are supposed to do on the trail. I couldn't do this job if I tried. My 15 year old daughter is amazing me that she can handle this! At the end of the day at 6 pm, the horses have to be unsaddled and fed.

We love those horses! They are soooo amazing!
