Rained the night before, so the ground was mushy. Opened Morg's stall to let her run a bit and Maj chased her back into the stall - shell fell trying to turn. Checked her hoof; little bleeding, but no heat. Put iodine on it and let her play in the turn out while I locked up Trav and Maj. She zoomed around the arena a few times, so I figured she was OK to ride.
Tossed a saddle on and then walked her to the front where the tractor tire had been left. She snorted, ran circles around me, and kept staring at it. I let her circle, but each time I got closer to the tire. I unhooked one rein and sat on the tire while she pranced around snorting. Eventually she realized it wasn't scary so we moved on to riding.
I was losing the light, so we only ran around the yard a bit. I love how comfortable I feel with her! We rode for about 20 minutes before we untacked and I fed everyone, but it was rejuvenating! :)
