While we were in Wapiti, Wyoming for the family reunion, we got to go horseback riding with Warren's brother, Neal, and his two daughters, Ali and Sydney. The monkeys and I had never been before so we were extra excited. Well, Jiro was a little apprehensive, but excited too. I thought for sure he'd end up sharing a horse with me, but it turns out it was actually safer for him to ride solo (on a very mellow horse being led by our cowboy-for-hire). Satchel opted to have his horse pulled too, but the rest of us took the reigns. I wasn't really nervous until I nearly flew over my horse, Flint, when attempting to get in the saddle. (So embarrassing!) Turns out all of the horses were very cooperative and we had a nice, easy two hour ride through the gorgeous Shoshoni National Forest. (Flint did take advantage of my kind nature, and we often got behind due to his grass munching.) It was so much fun! Even though I was in pain by the end, it was totally worth it.
