New horses and ponies galore!
In less than a week, I've ridden two new-to-me horses, and had really good rides on both! One, Glory, is a Paint mare owned by another client at the barn who's working with my trainer. She's definitely a mare, but has the best sitting trot ever. Had a good first ride on her on Friday, even though I hope to never ride in her saddle again. My but was seriously sore for days, it managed to get me at all the wrong angles. Today I rode Ole, my trainer's new Haflinger pony. He was so much fun, we even trotted over some poles, did some baby leg yields, and walked a little bit on the road by the end of the ride. He exudes something similar to Indy personality-wise, totally trustworthy and a horse I would like to be around a lot more. Plus we finally get a horse who likes to be fussed over! A really good horse week.
