WE STILL DO NOT HAVE ANY HAY UP:-( TODAY WE WILL BE CUTTING EVERYBODY CROSS THEIR FINGERS FOR GOOD WEATHER. THIS MORNING WE ARE GOING TO BREAKFAST ON THE FARM AND AFTER A COUPLE PARTIES TO ATTEND.
UPDATE: ERIC IS LEARNING ALOT, I HAVE HIM WORKING WITH FLICKA AND SHE IS QUITE A CHALLENGE. HE DID GET TO RIDE HER BAREBACK , THAT MADE HIS DAY AFTER THE VERY LONG TRAINING LESSON AND DID I FORGET TO SAY THAT SHE IS A JUMPER, SHE CLEARED THE OUTDOOR ARENA LIKE NOTHING. I JUST TOLD ERIC THAT SOMETIMES THAT HAPPENS. ABBY WENT HOME, READY TO DO SOME LIGHT TRAIL RIDING. DALE AND TRACY ENJOY HER, SHE IS A LOT OF FUN AND SHE IS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE U GUYS. THAN IN CAME A NEW PROJECT. THREE YEAR OLD QH WITH NOT A LOT OF EXPOSURE. HER NAME IS BELLA, AND EVERYDAY GETS BETTER. SHE GOT DROPPED OFF AND IS THINKING WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED AND WHERE IS MY MOMMY. SHE TOOK A FEW DAYS TO ADJUST WITH DOGS, CATS SCREAMING KIDS, AND HORSES FLYING BY WITH LITTLE PEOPLE ON THEM. I SWEAR HER HEAD IS STILL SPINNING. HER FIRST LESSON WENT AMAZING, EXCEPT FOR THE SURCINGLE, SHE BUCKED WITH THE BEST OF THEM FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS. FINALLY LAST NIGHT NO BUCK EVEN WITH THE CROUPER--PREPARING NOT TO LOOSE MY SADDLE IN CASE SHE FREAKS. WITH ERICS HELP LIFTING THE SADDLE ON BECAUSE I THREW OUT MY NECK/SHOULDER---I THINK I AM GETTING TO OLD FOR THIS SHIT BUT I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT. SADDLE IS ON, BREAST COLLAR IS ON, CROUPER IS ON. FINISH CINCHING SADDLE AND SAY A PRAYER THAT ALL OUR PREPARATION FOR THIS PAID OFF. GOOD GIRL, GOOD GIRL ,WALK ,GOOD GIRL. NO BUCK WALK TROT CANTER. YEAH WE DID IT!!!! UNTIL NEXT TIME.
