• Riders: Self - Lynn
• Horses: Jack - Drifter - Outlaw - Friday
• Dogs: In camp - leash laws

Notes: The second day of our Catalina State Park Trip. We rode Jack and Outlaw in the morning and headed up 50 year Trail. The trail ends at a gate entering BLM. We opted to turn around as Lynn was getting pretty sore. She is healing up from a broken pelvis and ankle, a bone marrow transplant and another round of chemo...she's pretty amazing to be doing what she does. 

Back at camp, we unhooked and took a quick trip into Walmart. I didn't have as much water with me as I thought. I also forgot my camp chair. Living in my RV and LQ for four years....my camp chairs are pretty much my lawn furniture and I forget to put them back in my trailer. PLUS...I've always wanted one of those directors chairs with a built in table. Found one for 29 bucks and got a little shade umbrella to go with it! 

We saddled Drifter and Friday for an afternoon ride. We opted to ride up 50 year again as it has an incline to it and Friday and Drifter were both feeling their Wheaties. By Monday evening, we pretty much had the equine facility to ourselves and was able to leave my dogs off leash when nobody was looking. 

We loaded up Tuesday morning, dumped the septic tanks and parted ways. Lynn is on her way back to Colorado and I am home; contemplating writing a blog piece on the stupidity of lawn care titled "Keep off the Grass!"
