Ms. Lat finally was ridden this week. I only rode last week on Wednesday then the rain came back. This week I had two opportunities to ride but my friend's mother died and I had to spend time with her. Hopefully I will be able to ride tomorrow.
This past tuesday when I did ride, Ms. Lat was wonderful especially after not being ridden for a week. We did leg yields and lots of transitions and she was just great. I did not show last weekend and I am not showing this weekend, so that gives us some time to try new things. We will practice cantering and maybe we will try jumping. I have not jumped a horse in 30 years it should be interesting. Anyone that has some advice on how to start her over fences would be appreciated.
Maybe it's crazy for me to say this, but you can send your rain-rain to us here in the Swamplands. Currently we've got a sprinkle of rain, but we haven't had signficant waterfallage in nigh-on a month! The Swamps are getting crunchy! Ooooh noooes!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad Ms Lat was a good girl. Good luck with the jumping (I'm a "why jump when you can go around?" rider my ownself!)
