Rode horses today

Here are some photos I took from my horse while riding in Real de Catorce today.  Most of them came out blurry because my horse just wouldn't keep still...  But here are a few that came out:

Marion didn't think I should be taking pictures while riding, but this shot is pretty good!


Yes, there will be some glamor shots of the Burros.  They're so damn photogenic.



This is at the top of the mountain where the Huichol indigenous people come once a year for a very important ritual that involves eating the mescal cactus, or peyote.  This section is a protected area for Los Huicholes.

Marion is clearly loving it.   By this point I am starting to question the wisdom of riding horses on our one day off from motorcycle riding as my stirrups are set for a taller guy and my horse keeps running...
