[Cayuse]

1 hour ground driving Peanut, weather is getting better, snow is melting and I had a path to drive on for the first time in months.

 

[Willow Flats]

1/11 - 30 minutes driving Rocko.

There was some wind and worries about cattle so he was spooking and having trouble focusing so as soon as he found some relaxation we came in.

 

[Willow Flats]

1/13 - 60 minutes driving Rocko.

He had no problems with the cows today but Annie was with us and he probably saw that she wasn't concerned. Kind of funny because she had a terrible fear of cattle that we had to overcome.

 

[Abby P]

60 minutes ground-driving Rowan today. Up hill and down dale, lots of work on walk-trot-walk transitions and half-halts. He did well but I was glad I didn't hitch him - very blustery day!

 

[Marsha Cassada]

Blustery here also! But if we waited for everything to be perfect we'd never get anything done! 65 minutes driving Dapper Dan today.
We were very leisurely; stopped for a chat with neighbors also, who rides a big horse. I suggested we might go together next time she rides. It might be fun for Midnight to trail ride with a big horse.

 

[Marsha Cassada]

120 minutes driving Midnight.

WOW! I haven't been here for awhile. Life has been so crazy. I truly hate to feel busy, especially when I feel like I'm not accomplishing ANYTHING.

The other days we just went walking. Sometimes he walks in front of me and sometimes he walks beside me. I don't have two lines on but I'm not intentionally "driving" him either. So I won't count those days!

Oliver has been going with us and is learning to really walk out! He is also coming into his own and wants to wrestle and bite and jump on Zorro was we walk. LOL! He makes me laugh the entire time.

Video of Oliver being "naughty"!

Oliver walking out!

I had forgotten about Oliver! He is so handsome.
