weekend
fun fun fun.
rode alot this weekend. actually, I’m a lil sore.
I rode and piddled around the barn on saturday.
Then on Sunday, we trailered Miss Cook and Patty over to school in the new barn ring.
Miss rocked. She jumped everything, looked at nothing. She hadn’t been ridden since Tuesday, so she was a little fresh…. but definitely nothing too fresh I couldn’t handle. We were a little fast in some spots… (ok ALOT fast in some spots… one line we galloped down at mock speed). Mere raised the jumps on us to back her off the jump. HA! I was choking down the vomit at the back of my throat, but I trust Miss, so I sucked it up, and went over anyway. The first big jump she overjumped and we were in the air FOREVER (in reality, prolly 1 second). But after that, I got the feel for it and we were fine.
So I’m very very happy with the Miss. Good good girl.
