Subject: Yeah great Ride >>>> Author: Lucy [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 00:08:35 02/28/02 Thu Hi and Today I took Crystal Dreams Out. I took her to the wash stalls and washed her thourghly and groomed and she didn't want me to stop.Next I took her to the Lounge ring and walked Troted and cantered her well so she was supple.I took her to the practice arena slipped my left leg in and lifted my weight on it and easily swung my right leg over slipped it in the stirrup and sat gently in the saddle. I walked her not doing anything special but trying her out to see how she was to ride and she was ***beautiful***.Even though she is Quite Tall as she was a draft horse.She had great big heavy strides the trot was wonderful.She picked up her pace and I touched her on the sides and swiftly got into a canter.It was heavy beats not coming off the ground much but ohh the feeling.She isn't to good at Jumping so I only really trust her in Dressage.I pulled her to a walk and walked her out of the arena.Dismounted and grabbed a cloth to wipe the sweat."You have a big day today Dream I hope you are not tired".I mounted again in 1 swift movement and troted her towards the Dressage arena and halt in the center.I do the Dressage test we need to learn to learn to be better horse and rider.After I had finished after the salute in the center walked her out thinking she needs something else...... I trot her towards the gentle slop and she knows straight away.I touch her and once again I feel that stride.I sit with her in harmany as if we knew what each other were saying .I pulled gently on the reins and I walked the rest of the way.I relaxed and walked her home.I got off in one swift movement and washed and groomed and again she diddn't want me to stop so I did it a little longer and led her back to the pastures and smacked her on the rump.She neighed and trotted away while I headed away for a well needed shower.
