    Horse adventures don't always need to be epic but also commonplace and short. It really is the spirit that counts. Rather than always dream about your future long ride, maybe go for a small adventure with your horse. Do a day ride, visit a friend or ride to a restaurant. All of these adventures do not need a lot of preparation, time and training but can be done on a day or a week-end. Surprisingly, most people never think of doing something like this.

Then you have the Chestnut or Sorrel which come in different shades of red. The genetics of a horse's color coat is important for understanding the heritability that could benefit the breeding decision.  full show notes https://equestrianadventuresses.com/2022/10/05/horse-podcast-ep-277-horse-colors---the-science-behind-it/
