Weekend enjoyment!

Last weekend I rode both Rocky and Sweetie on Saturday morning. My goal was just to have fun and enjoy the rides - nothing flashy, no major goals. And I managed to do just that! :) Rocky was prepared for me to canter, (I could feel him get ready to buck a little), but that wasn't in my gameplan, and we worked through and had a nice trot with lots of circles and bends to keep his attention. It felt great.

And then I rode Sweetie for a short ride - we walked, trotted, and cantered both ways, and just enjoyed the beautiful fall morning. Perfect temperature, with the sun shining bright, a gentle breeze floating through her mane, enjoying her company. Reminded me of what riding is really all about.
