Yesterday and today we were able to work with Marty, Maddy and Skip! Marty did pretty good, I could tell he hadn't been worked with for quite awhile though.  I can't wait until it dries out though, I really want to start lungeing him again, he has a bit of pent up energy.

    As far as Skip, I don't know how much groundwork he has on him, since we didn't start him.  So were starting him from the ground up.  He was pretty scared of the lead rope, so Alison desesitized him with that, and the stick and string.  He apparently hasn't been taight how to lunge either, but he took to it fairly well. 

    Hopefully in a couple weeks we'll get to riding him. He seems like a good fella, and I really want to get him to where his owner can ride him.

    Next week we're starting on Blaze and Bethany AGAIN. I really really really hope that all the flexing we did didn't go down the drain from Christmas break :0

                                         Well that's all for now,
