Rhu + Bareback + Open Desert = Bliss

53 minutes - 1.7 miles - Rhulain

 I was just going to for a walk.  Rhu was in a great mood.  I was in a great mood and I was filled with confidence from last night's ride on Morgan ... so ...

I asked Rhulain to give me a ride.  Bareback.  In a halter.  A half mile from home.

And she did.  

Twice I asked her to slow down (trotting hurt my knee too much) and she did quickly and quietly.  We approached the gate and she lined up perfectly for me to open it without dismounting.  Normally we speed up once in the gate, but she just kept moving steadily with perfect headset.

I'm not sure how I ended up with the two most perfect horses on the planet, but I did.  I love them so very much!

Oh how I have missed you Morgie girl

Rode Morgan
1.66 miles

Our life has been crazy busy ... classes on Saturday, tickets for baseball games, pie auctions, new tattoos, date nights, running errands, taking friends out to lunch, rearranging horse stalls ... and barely any time to ride.  When there is a moment, it's extremely windy, or wet, or both.  *sigh*

Tonight I was able to spend a few minutes with my Morgie girl.  Even though it had been 10 days since I was able to saddle Morgan, she was just as good as gold.  No high-headed, snorty, in heat attitude, just calm and smooth, even when the rest of the herd was calling out to her from a half mile away.  I'm simply amazed at how incredible she is and feel so very lucky she chose me.

Thank you Morgan ... thank you a million times over
