Trail Log: 9-15-2022

Drifter - our second ride

 

  • Trail: Aguila - State Land
  • Miles: 4
  • Riders: Self - Phil
  • Horses: Drifter - Jack - Hank - E.T


Notes: Phil came over and rode Jack so I could ride Drifter and not be out there on a colt by myself. We rode to the tank to check it out. I figured with all the rain there would be water in it. There is not. If this is supposed to be the biggest monsoon season in 30 years or more...I'm guessing that thing never gets water in it. 

I seem to have a new dog. He showed up at my place about a week ago. Starved...beat up and thirsty. I was a little leery of him at first but he went right to thumping his tail. I fed and watered him and doctored the gash on his head. He hasn't left my side since. I put is picture out on the Aguila FB page for a couple of days. No takers...so, unless he is micro-chipped...I'm keeping him. I take him in to be neutered in a couple of weeks. Crossing my fingers and toes he's not chipped. I'm pretty much attached already. I was going to call him Brutus...he's going to be a big dog when he gets some weight on him. However, I think I will call him E.T. He just sort of landed here out of nowhere like an alien encounter....he looks at you like he can read your thoughts and he does bare a striking resemblance to E.T. Hopefully he's not chipped and can stop attempting to phone home.
