Horse Stories 6

Last Thursday, when we had our riding lesson, we did a very ridiculous thing, which involved trotting around poles, moving traffic cones from one pole to another. Without falling off, running into poles, or going every which way.

Okay, there was rather a lot of going every which way. :D BUT we never actually dropped the cone!

Then it rained all weekend, hard, as if the sky gods had saved up an entire month of rain and realized they needed to spend it or there wouldn’t be any rain budget allotted to them in the next month, so we all stayed home and ignored everything outside of the house or barn, as our domiciles warranted. Yesterday, though, Alex-who-owns-Magni and I went over and chased the lads around the arena, because nobody really wants to get on a horse that’s been cooped up for four days without much exercise.

Okay, maybe somebody does? But it’s not me.
