TODAY WAS GOOD. I SADDLED UP FLICKA, GROUND DROVE HER AND DID SOME BIT WORK. ONE THING I HAVE TO SAY IS SHE IS VERY STRONG HEADED, SHE CAN EVEN DRAG ME ACROSS THE ARENA, NOT SO FUN. BUT BY THE END SHE WAS STARTING TO SOFTEN UP A LITTLE AND I WAS EVEN ABLE TO PUT MY WEIGHT ON HER AND GET HER TO WALK OFF AND STOP, NOT SO BAD. I ALSO HAD TO PUT A BLANKET ON HER BECAUSE SHE DID WORK UP A SWEAT TODAY, I SURELY DO NOT NEED A SICK HORSE. SHE DID NOT THINK IT WAS TO COOL AT FIRST. UNTIL NEXT TIME, HOPEFULLY I WILL BE ABLE TO GET SOME SERIOUS RIDING IN IF THE WEATHER IS GOING TO BE AS GOOD AS THEY SAY!!
