Okay, so I get a bucket, fill it with water.
Around 10 minutes later she comes home, all excited, sweating, and tells me that the bucket of water was for a dog she met in the field.
Huh?
She then tells me that she got to pet a horse and is going riding later. What?! We live in the burbs, horses aren't allowed here!
Well apparently there was couple that were travelling with their horse and dog. They saw the field and decided to let the animals stretch their legs for a bit.
It's a hot day and they had no water, so Syd said she'd get some, hence the bucket.
The people were so grateful that they said Syn could have a ride on the horse. Syd said she'd have to ask me first. Well sadly the people couldn't stay, so Syd just petted the horse and then came home.
I know it may not sound like a big deal, but a horse in our neighborhood, well, she may as well have spotted big foot. ;)
