PONIES, OF COURSE

Hey! I'm back in the saddle-fitting saga again, trying to make the Funny Boy comfortable....the good news is that i got to ride twice today. Once in the ring, which really was twice, because I opted to change my saddle half-way through to experiment....that was funny, because I guess the rider was pretty grumpy and it made everyone laugh when that got pointed out several times today (since she asked the horse what his problem was and it was quite clear that it was her! at least at the time!) Then, to try a new saddle adjustment, I went for what was supposed to be a short ride with Rachel and Julio, and we had so much fun we kept going and had a couple of lovely trots and canters....even cantered side by side with no racing involved! We were sooooo tired that coming home meant time for a NAP, which I did get for 10 minutes or so, on the porch in my fav spot while everyone was gone....
Can't wait for the next ride, or at least the next lesson, which is all my older girls for a last fling b4 Julie and Andria head off to greener pastures.....
