Hello,

Just got in. Jenny and I went to pick up Blake. They're all crashed out,,Gee Willakers its hot.

That's pretty much the impression I was getting, watching this girl work with this horse. It was just a matter of, He could act that way so he did. She's pretty much had this problem with every horse she has had.

Becky

Finished my ride. It has been 70 -90 % humidity and over 95 degrees for the past 3 wks. Today it was only 90 and lower humidity so I rode this morning. Met some new riders at he barn and took them over the trails. I have not ridden for 3 wks due to the temp and lack of free time.
My horse did fine and we did some jumping . Did some x country fences and one of the riders has a horse that is an ex field hunter so she went over all the jumps very confidently.

I led on the jumps and my mare did great . Jumping more willing then usual. My mare Rhiannon is a 26 year old TB so I am careful what I ask for, but this last year she has been getting back into enjoying jumping.

Rode for 3 hours and did about 15 miles . Afterwards the riders were exchanging phone #'s since the rest enjoyed it.
I have basically riding the trails by myself for the last year since the barn was full of slow and timid riders.
I have not posted much before but I ride in Anne Arundel Co in MD on the east coast.

I also met a woman on the trails that I have not seen in 12 years, We exchanged news etc.

My son just called me - wanted to know if we wanted to take on an arab gelding, 5yr, that was headed for the auction. Guess he's rank and charged the woman who owns him while in the round pen.

My whole family needs their head examined.
