    another quickie.....

    Well, just gonna put up a quick post. Didn't ride much this weekend but went out yesterday and had a decent round. I was a bit worried with her having five days off... she tends to revert to her childhood and 'forget' her learning. :)

    She was actually pretty good. We did have some issues again with that bending line but started getting it figured out again. We had a minor crash through a small vertical and I jacked my jaw on her poll. OUCH. Had a royal headache the rest of the evening.

    But I took her over some ground poles and then back to the vertical and she popped right over without a big issue. :) I was really glad for that.

    Today was another day off with the farrier supposed to be coming. He had to reschedule so I didn't end up riding as I wasn't prepared. Yeah I know.... But I had my nephew with me and nobody else was there so I couldn't run the risk of me getting hurt or something and just him there! On a different horse it would have been no issue... but I do not fully trust Cat yet.

    Tomorrow I"m thinking of taking her out of the arena and playing on the XC field for a bit. :D

     

    We'll see how it goes!!

    Man, I can't wait for our "summer" to kick in. Unfortunately, we wont get any really good, consistent weather until late July or August. The sun's out here, at least, but that cold wind blowing off the ocean is freezing me to the bone! And trying to ride in it? Yeeesh.

    Don't get too jealous of me and the beach! LOL. First off, it was freezing! And second, you can't ride too long inthe sand unless your horse is used to it, or in good shape. So our rides are pretty short! Which is good, otherwise we'd be popsicles! LOL

    LOL. That's OK! I'll probably be the same age as your sister before I'll be able to get back to English riding again. I miss it a lot. I also recently heard the top English trainer in my parts is moving. Bummer!

    Great photos. How old is your sister? Has she been riding long?
