Funny how you can have such a good ride one day and then such a horrible ride the next! I was looking forward to my Friday night ride but when I got on, nothing felt right. About half way through the ride, I realized what was happening. It dawned on me that I was experiencing symptoms associated with that thing that comes around about once month for ladies (TMI!)! So I just stopped riding. No progress was going to be made! I turned Will out to the pasture after my ride and he was just as agitated too! Usually he gorges himself on grass but instead he walked around and seemed distracted.
So we tried again today and I’m happy to report that things went much better! I really worked keeping him active when I picked up the inside rein. Before he was yielding but slowing down behind. Activity, activity, activity is the name of our game!
