Narrow Miss.....

The other day I was leading a trail ride with children and adults, when the nice kid-safe horse behind me passed me at a trot on the trail. On her way past me, she flew a kick at the horse I was riding, who jumped sideways and up to get away from her. Luckily, I wasn't unseated, nor did I receive the blow. Instead, "Whitey" (the horse I was riding) took the burnt of the impact.

Thanks for taking one for the team, Whitey.

Thank God this wasn't my leg:



This picture reminds me of how powerful horses can be. This is the damage from one swift kick from a small horse. Jeez....
