Desert Horses

Welcome to my horse blog, Desert Horses. We live in the desert southwest, near Palm Springs, CA, but board our horses up in our local mountains where it is cooler in the summer. I have 4 horses, all rescues. Here is the ranch up the mountains where the horses stay.

Busy road and Cali update


As I drove up the road to Cahuilla Mountain last weekend, I was alone. I did come upon some mountain bikers who were unloading their bikes, but otherwise I was the only car on the road. I stopped and wandered among the oak trees, admiring the view. To my east was Mt. San Jacinto, snow-covered and majestic. To my north was Mt. Gorgonio, regal and peeking between the oaks. On my way back down the road, I came upon these folks who were bringing their horses in for a ride. I wish I had stayed to watch, but I had to get over to the ranch and check on Cali's condition. Apparently she has recovered and is now chasing Scout around the corral!

What a road to drive on. I am glad Cali is doing well again

Rough road! But I bet you were thinking the same as I would have been thinking: "What a great place and day for a trail ride!"

Glad to read that Cali is doing better.
I'll need to back track and find out what happened.
