Cantering on a horse April 2, 2104

The thrill of the ride

A sweet gentle rocking horse

Canter in the ring.

Art Prescription:  After practicing my posting trot on my bike, no less, I got to put homework into action today on Pinto Bean. Still a little rough around the edges, but I’m making progress. We ended our session with a canter and Pinto proved to have a sweet and gentle pace.

Before we ride it’s fun and interesting to look at herd behavior. Never a dull moment,  here is Iloa dunking her whole head into the water. Horse-play. Charlie is looking at her with curiousity. “What on earth are you doing?”

Velvet attentive ears, and

Exhilaration!

Art Prescription:  I rode Doc today at Women’s Intuitive Riding at Blue Skies http://www.blueskiesmapleview.us. Looking down at his beautiful profile and soft ears, I couldn’t help but think of what a spectacular view this is!
