Weather, Nice and sunny.
Bugs, Terrible!
So today I thought the only way to get someone out there, and play with me is if I took either Molly or Glory, so I played with Glory today, and got A. to play with Jessie and us. So I went in with the halter and 12ft line. Jessie pricked her ears at me, and I went over to rub her, and she put her ears back, but not in a mean way. So after I rubbed her, I moved off to get Glory. Jessie was surprised that I didn't catch her. And Glory turned her rear towards me when I came in because she must have thought that I was going to let Jessie and Molly out to graze. But when I came up her her, she pricked her ears, and got into position to let me halter her, and when I put it on, Molly came over, Clearly jealous, and actually shoved her head in the way, but I had already slipped the halter over Glory's nose, and so I shooed her away, and Molly had a mean look on her face, almost pouting, so I waved the end of the 12ft line around, and she went off, but with a different face. So then I played with Glory. She didn't have too good of a sideways going to the left, but to the right was good. So then I groomed her, tacked her up with the BP, then played with her a little to the stump where I got up, and she lined herself up nicely, then I got on. She turned her head some times to bite my foot, and she kept on wanting to eat, its harder with her to quit eating because she has more strength than Jessie, and she did have a rush of adrenaline when we went out back, but overall it was a pretty good ride. Then A. wanted to go on the trails, and since I didn't think Glory is trail safe yet, I agreed to walk along with, and Glory kept on looking at everything, and trying to eat, and not caring that her Mother is making a scene whinnying like crazy for her worried. She wanted to check everything out, Forget Mom! :-D So when we got to the log jump I tried to send her, but she kept on eating, and using a CS is much offense to her I think, and she overeacts when I use it, so I left it back by the pasture. So I took the end of the 12ft line, and waved it at her, and what does she do? Keeps right on eating, and STEPS OVER the jump. This is a pretty good sized log here. Larger around than a 55 gallon barrel. So I try again, and the same thing. She even rolled it a little bit. So then we wandered around some more, I'm trying to keep her from eating the ferns because I heard that they're not supposed to eat them, and I wriggle the rope, and what does she do? Still tacked up with the BP, She rolls. And rolls, And rolls, And rolls! This was in a dip of the sort on the trail, with lots of leaves, and she gets the dirt ground in with the leaves, and I have a lovely look nature, nature scented BP. I also noticed that there was A Lot more crackling of the leaves because her hooves are bigger. You couldn't hear much with her walking. :-D So then we went back, and I put Glory in, and I made her run off to make room for Jessie to come in, and A. let Molly in the back pasture, and Molly cantered around Glory, then also settled down to graze. So I put Jessie in, and let her loose, and I had her run off to graze, but she only trotted. So then I put everything back, then went in.
Later on I came back out, did chores, said goodnight, then went in.
Oh yes, we got bright orange hunting cover over? vests! Now we could probably go trail riding during hunting season! :-D
Overall it was a Pretty Good day. :-D
