Our day at the beach

I took Princess and Dino to the beach today. I was by myself, so I just rode one of them at a time. Some of you were asking for pictures from last time and since I was by myself I got a little creative with my pictures. I rode Princess first. She has become an awesome trail horse as you will see from the videos. While I was riding her I videoed our ride. We walked through water on the trails, cantered on the straight stretches and took a stroll down to the beach. The pictures with all the logs and brush is the trail coarse we went through. She just went right in and had no problems crossing all the logs. It was great!
I then rode Dino. We practice towing logs and did the log jam too! It was a nice day at the beach and my rides made it just about perfect. I wished Lisa could have gone with me, but she had to work.

I am a five year old mustang mare from the Beattys Butte Heard Management area. I was rounded up from the wild in the fall of 2007. I spent a year in the corrals in Burns waiting to be adopted. Finally I was chosen for the Extreme Mustang Makeover to be held in Albany, Oregon on March 21st. I can be adopted by anyone who qualifies by the BLM to be an adoptee. I am 14 hands tall. I love people and love to go trail riding. I like long walks on the beach and grazing on pasture. I am gentle and easy to ride. I am not afraid of anything. My full name is Sapheara Warrior Princess. If you would like to meet me you can see me at the Expo.
