Well, it's good that he did well! Makes for a more pleasant ride... but I made all this popcorn for nothing it seems ;~D
I rode Harley. We did about 2 1/2 hours and he was still going strong. We did some pretty good hills too and some very rocky stuff, so maybe he will be in shape by the end of May.
He got a bit up in the bridle too when the deer jumped, but I'm not sure if he jumped because of the deer or because of OReo jumping. Oreo was behind us. I don't think Harley ever saw the deer.
We actually saw deer 3 times, but it only startled the horses that once.
