And we’re off and riding…. 🐴⛰️

First weekend done! ✅

A little cooler than we would have liked, but our beautiful backyard never disappoints, whatever the weather throws at us! 😍

A huge thanks to everyone who helped get us ready for another season!

🐴 Shoes on ✅ Palmers Super Idea Matt Maliki
🐴 Horse gear checked ✅ (Huge thanks to Bonnie Stephenson for being on speed dial 😂)
🚛 Camp trailer ready ✅

Sorry about the lack of footage this weekend… our social media guy got a little distracted by his cousin being on the ride! 🙄😂

So the four videos I did manage to get were basically a “Working in the Life of Bryce McMillan ” vlog! 🎥🤳🐴

Looking forward to tomorrow’s ride, where we may even encounter a little ❄️🫣🥶

And as Bruce always tells us…

“Never underestimate the High Country!” ⛰️🐴

Here’s to another season of adventures in our beautiful backyard! ❤️
