We hit the trails yesterday with our annual trip to Shmick State Park. My family of 5, plus Pop, left in the a.m. with Grandma Belle bringing all the goodies a little later for our noon meal.
It was an exciting trip with a few Davis Adventures. I'm not so sure Dawson's pony, Tiger, isn't part mountain goat...he trudged through EVERYTHING! With no picture you won't quite grasp the true image but let me try....Dan was leading the "herd" and encountered a pretty steep, wet clay climb. His horse was sinking in terrible.....all you could hear was that suction sound of the horses legs pulling up from deep down in the wet clay. Dawson & Tiger were following hot on Dan's tail. I seriously thought the twosome were stuck when I saw Tiger sink to his belly & momentarily stall. When the rest of the "herd" made it around and to the top of the hill(Pop found a better route for the rest of us) we saw ole' Tiger had mud covering his nose, in his mouth, caked on his bit, in his stirrups and completely covering his underside.
The picture was priceless & the laughter was loud!
Go Tiger and Ridem' cowboy!
