8 minutes - 0.13 miles - Majesty
After church services, egg hunting at the house, and the community egg hunt at the park, I was in need of some horse time. I saddled up Rhulain and we worked on our turns for a while. Then we took a walk around the property and Rhu discovered the chickens. You know, those noisy, smelly, flapping things that might eat horses. They crowded the corner of their pen trying to get a better view and she gave them the stink eye from a safe distance.
Rhu looked longingly off property, but the winds were really picking up and I didn't want to ruin the nice jaunt we'd had by ducking trash being blown around from the neighbor's house. So, we called it a day. She looked rather indignant that the reins slid down her neck and landed behind her ears. I laughed and then gave her a good grooming as a reward for being so patient today.
Majesty was in dire need of a shedding, so I pulled him out to give him some time. A ran over and asked Bill if he could ride Majesty. Bill consented, so I tacked him up and walked the two of them around the yard for a few minutes. Majesty's age is definitely showing ... he is willing, but doesn't want to do more than a shambling walk.
I have to be in Texas for training this week, so it was nice to spend ample amounts of time with each horse. Every horse got attention, hugs, and grooming, and I got plenty of snuggle time in return.
