Notes: First ride post-COVID. That shit can kick your ass. I'd say I'm about 50% of normal. Not exactly the Christmas present I was hoping for but since I didn't die, I can't complain too much. Getting a heavy saddle on a tall horse was slightly less difficult than getting on him. It would have been a lot easier to saddle and ride Drifter but thought it was best to stick with Jack until I get my strength and balance back. I will get them back, right? Good hell....
Of all the meds I've taken in the last week for body aches, runny nose, hacking cough, chest congestion, head aches, fevers and simply trying to breath...nothing felt as good as crawling into that saddle. COVID is no match for 1200 pounds of buckskin and hooves.
