Several of us were invited on a trail ride by one of the local Baptist churches, and off we went, after Mass.
The cavalry lined up for a photo while I was waiting for a trailer and a horse. Then we said a pre-ride prayer, hats off, and rode out.
A lot of the ride was through woods and the horses kicked up a storm of dust, which I found adventurous, in a Riders of Dune kind of way. But once out of the woods there was plenty of room and I went up and down the line of "follow my leader" riders. Sometimes at a gallop, sometimes not.

Bad form? I don't think so, but you don't want to get too carried away and run out and start a stampede. Fun for some, not for others.
Then, after a couple of hours, the ecumenical ride was over and we loaded the horses back into the trailers.

I enjoyed everything about this experience, and it'll come in handy when civilization comes crashing down and you can't use your car anymore. Then the horse will rule.
God bless,
