Tequila
I went riding yesterday and since it was such a nice day here I rode outside! I liked it outside because it was calm and peaceful except when a car or school bus went past. The ring was twice the size of the arena so at first I did smaller circles. By the end I was going around the whole sand ring. Between the wind and the traffic it was a good thing I didn't start outside on Ellie Mae. She wold have probably jumped the fence back to her paddock!
I also got a new horse yesterday. Her name is Tequila. Tequila is an Appaloosa horse who is harder to control because she's so big compared to Ellie Mae. .Tequila felt very slow compared to Ellie Mae who was a pony. Ponies like Ellie Mae take quick little baby steps move fast. Ellie Mae also responds to my commands immediately. To get used to Tequila we mostly worked on transitions moving quickly from Halt to Trot, to walk and back again.One funny thing about Tequila is that she makes funny faces! She looks like she is smiling and laughing and even sticking out her tongue. Having her open her mouth so much made putting the bit in much easier!
Hopefully I have Tequila again!
