Cape May (7 days/6 nights)

Stone Harbor

Not intending to do anything today since I had many errands to run to get ready for vacation. One of the things I wanted to do was get a few books at the library to bring along. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that they close at 5:30 on Fridays. Since I was already in the garage and would have to pay for an hour, I decided to walk around downtown a little bit. Lots of people out. Gummy worms were randomly strewn about the sidewalk over a period of about 4 blocks, which for some reason I found quite amusing.

Lesson on Jet. Diane is on vacation and I got to ride her horse. It was the first time I have ridden him. Everything was okay at first, until we got to cantering, and he was getting very fast and strung out. Once I figured out that he needs very little leg, things went much better. We trotted one small jump course beautifully and did another pretty well. I hope I get another chance to ride him sometime now that I figured him out.

A little less than normal. Had somewhere to be after the gym. Cleared up some stuff that has been on my shoulders for the past few days. Making the right decision often sucks.

Forgot to take my gym bag to work (that is what I get after a week of slacking off) so came home and walked instead. Pretty humid out.
