rain players




the sky is gray and rain is possible. we hesitantly throw the saddles on the horses anyways. we start off down by the county road. the rain stays away so we have a hayday. laughing and joking, playing and prodding along, we soon make it to Posey's store. at Cook's old place, there is junk for sale and carports too. the rain comes and two sisters dismount. pulling the horses, under the carport of metal, we find shelter from the rain. people pass on the road and stare. this is a time to be our selves, we cut up and have a good time waiting for the rain to slow. it doesn't and we wonder how long we'll be there. our minds wander and we jokingly make up silly stories in our minds of what could happen. i think to ride the rain out, she wishes to wait a while. mom texts and asks us if we want to join the rest of the family for supper. we laugh and sister tells her there's a story to tell. she advises we are to go on home. so we do and the rain is thankfully stopped. mud puddles in the neighbors yard are all too tempting. we splash through them over and over fast as we can, horses legs soaked through. a memory is made and we're glad the rain didn't keep us away from making it. Macalister's deli and a movie concludes the night, another perfect weekend in the books.

Wow. What a great day. :) It's been a long time since I've ridden horses and I'm kind of a baby about them. But my legs are so short they barely reach the stirrups (sp?)! (4'8" over here...)
