Day 6

Woke to a beautiful day. Walked outside to a scene of absolute beauty. The frost was very thick and made the place look as cold as it was. The white of the frost complimented the colours of fall in the trees. There were even ice crystals in the puddles on the ground. After yet another great meal the main activity for the day was horse riding. Now I had in the past said that my one experience was enough for a lifetime. But you know the old saying of getting back on a horse. So I ended up with a nice horse named Rico. He was fairly well behaved and did not like going fast, even when I politely asked. This suited me. The ride/walk was great, going through the bush and around canyons. A few hairy moments going up and down rocks, but at least I did not want to king hit this horse when I got off. After lunch most of the group went out again for another ride, but as certain parts of the anatomy were not really impressed with that idea. I gave it a miss and chilled out.

Got to watch them driving a heard of cattle from across the paddock, so that was cool. More chilling in the main house until bed time, when someone put a bit too much wood on the fire in the cabin, oops : ) I am sure that even the walls were starting to sweat. But it was easy to cool down, just step outside. Which I did to the others entertainment.
