Lots of People Holding Hands...

A busy and productive day today doing chores and jobs this morning. It was so lovely to see the sun out and it seemed to bring a sense of happiness around our local town with lots of people smiling and, I also noticed, lots of people holding hands...

This afternoon, I went to ride and to help my friend with the "loading her horse onto the trailer" issues from two weeks ago..we had a plan and were all set up with the trailer parked, treats in our pockets and I had my "firm but fair" head on, there was no way I was going to let the horse get the better of me...as it happens..he just walked straight onto the trailer without any fuss, first time..I'd like to think it was my innate ability as a 'horse whisperer'...but I rather think that he would have gone on anyway!
