What a beautiful sight! Ashley held the reins in her hands, looking at the scenery as they rode past. Treasure rode at a nice pace, not too swift, but not to fast. She rode at a canter. Good girl Treasure. Ashley was always one to praise her horse.
The two didn't know it, but farther on the trail was a snake. Treasure had a fear of snakes, and so did Ashley.
They came closer and closer to the snake, but remained unaware. Treasure's front right hoof came down on it, and the snake reacted quickly. It bit the horse's leg, and Treasure reared up, throwing the unsuspecting Ashley off. Treasure galloped up the trail.
Ashley landed in a thorny bush, thorns pricking through her skin. She lay there for a bit, dazed. When she hualed herself to her feet, she searched franctically, and began running. Her eyes searched for her brown and white appaloosa. Treasure! She hoped to hear the answering winnie. One thing was for sure, Ashley was not off to a good start at the stables.
