After market it was so nice to get away for a few days into the wilderness.

To get to this beautiful location you drive.
Take a dirt road and drive another 50+ miles.

Turn and drive some more. Turn again and drive. Then you arrive at this beautiful place.

It looks a lot like my back yard. Minus the water. Minus the drive.
And minus this beautiful creature.

I fell in love with her. And I think she with me.

She is a palomino Morgan horse, owned by another lady who, sadly, will not part with her. Not that I have a place for a horse or anything like that.

Just look at those big soft brown eyes. She is a gentle giant of a sweetheart.

I love this horse. I loved her sisters too, but I loved her more.

I did not get to ride her but I did ride another horse. We rode into a place that is only accessible by horseback, or by an airstrip, consisting of a large cleared out field which abruptly ended with a drop off into the river far below. Don’t worry it was a very long field. Or if you have no horse you could backpack in there.
It was beautiful!
We saw many, many mule deer. One cow elk and signs of (gulp) grizzly bear.

It was such a nice way to unwind for a few days after the many months of craziness to prepare for market.
I love it!
Hoping for many more days out in the woods this summer.
