I decided to spray the goatsheads, trying out my new ag dye so I would not get so caught up and run out of time. Well with starting out having slept late and what all I still didn't get on the horse till the morning was mostly shot but I needed my vitamin H, thank god for flexible work hours.
The ride was OK. I thought she felt a bit off --trot seemed kind of rough or uneven at times but nothing consistent from her --then when I got off I was very stiff on my right leg so its quite likely that my body was causing what I felt. We went 4 miles total, trotted or cantered 2.5 miles, she had lots of energy.
I bought some blue dye to add to herbicide when I picked up feed on wednesday and used it in my little hand sprayer the first time today. This is going to be very useful for getting a much higher percentage of the young weeds that haven't set burrs yet sprayed. I was shocked at how many skips I had when I could quickly see whether I had sprayed or not.
I invited the folks that have Lady to trail ride on Sunday and have not heard back. I should have worked on trying to set up a conditioning ride date to go to with Sadie instead but I don't think she'll mind just doing flat rides at home.
