MINE

MINE MINE MINE

MINE?

As of Friday September 4th, 2015 at like 3:30pm, I officially own TC (pending a few more payments)! I'm STOKED to be able to bring this amazing little horse along. And, for a preview of what is coming up this coming week, this picture:

I hate upswing posting pictures but I may make an exception
I mean just look at that horse! MY horse. There's a lot to do, I want his hind legs to be further under his body and for him to get those front legs off the ground sooner, I want to not look like I am playing piano while I ride, my left wrist has a curl to it- possibly due to the whip since I always carry it in that hand. Also one day I will look up. But there's so much to like too. He's so round over his back, he's lifting in the withers to his best ability (which isn't much but he isn't downhill). His trot has so much scope here, his hind leg is active and engaged. He is soft and steady in the bridle, right on the vertical. He isn't retracted in the neck. He's completely through. Also my legs aren't being crazy anymore, my hands are soft. I love it.

More pictures to come on Monday/Tuesday probably (I'm moving today!), some worse and some better than this one.
