Chandler rides, we follow

Chandler has had an incredible summer of riding horses and helping out at a horse outfitter as tourists flocked to this mountain get-away.  Down the road, at Cardinal Village, TessAnne heads up a horse riding concession and she heartily welcomed Chandler's assistance.   Toward the end of the season Doug, Henry, and I joined Chandler as she led the way on horseback through the desert up to an abandoned mine. 

Chandler heads down the mountain to Cardinal Village where she helps out with horse rides most days
