Horseback-riding trip in June 2010
This year our
trail ride was different then the years before. Since Dagmar sold the
horse Cochese last year due to not having too much time throughout
the year, because of training the dogs in fall and spring, she found
a new place for her horse Comanchero, which is located out in the Odenwald.
Once a year during the summer she will bring him home for about three
months. During the summer there are no dog trials scheduled, so she
has more time to ride her horse being accompanied by a dog or two.
Dagmar loves the nature and she is looking forward for this summer
to enjoy beautiful days with Comanchero and her dogs.
The new stable is about 30 miles away from her home
town. Last weekend she rode the horse home. Rita, her sister, accompanied
her the first part of the way and then she met up with Juian, a friend
of the family, and together with Julian on his bike and Hera they were
with her the rest of the day. It was a beautiful day.
A few pictures
were taken and we like to share them with visitors of our web page. |

Rita is getting Addi ready for the journey |
Comanchero is watching everything |
|
|
|
|
He is still a little nervous, |
because this stable is not his home, he just was there
for one night |
|
|
|
|
He is calling for his friends |
After a while he did calm down a little |
|
|
|
|
Around 11 AM we started |
to ride towards Bensheim, a historical city in the
Odenwald |
|
|
|
|
Julian and Hera were waiting for us at the Subway |
We bought sandwiches and kept riding towards the fields |
|
|
|
|
We found a nice place, |
where we had lunch |
|
|
|
|
Then around 2 PM we continued with the journey |
towards Groß-Rohrheim |
|
|
|
|
We rode through the woods |
It was a warm on that day |
|
|
|
|
Another short break, |
We needed that |
|
|
|
|
especially Hera |
Since the distance from Bensheim to Graoß-Rohrheim
is about |
|
|
|
|
20 km long, Hera had to take a break after about 10
km |
As soon as we came out of the woods, Comanchero knew
where he was; close to home |
|
|
|
|
Look at him, he has this special proud look, that Dagmar
loves so much, not only on the horse, also on her dogs |
At around 5 PM we arrived save at home |
