Today started in a weird way…I started feelin’ kinda crappy after giving Indy breakfast this morning because she was givin me maritude like months prior to us starting Parelli. So I decided to get a really good workout done after cleaning the barn followed by an hour of P90X stretch…I then came into the office answered emails, checked out work and decided I’m gonna go and fetch my horse.

I saddled Indy and took her into our pasture that we are clearing out and decided to let her graze a little then work on some transitions. We did for a bit and all was going well but I felt bad for Rainy running around and calling out to us…so I took Indy back to the barn, fetched Rain and all three of us headed back into the pasture.

Now I’ve never ponied a horse before nor played with Rain and Indy while riding so this was all a new challenge and experience for us…it was fun, my day changed completely and my mood was elevated to a sense of accomplishment and pride. Instead of me just working on Indy and trying to make things right with her, I actually worked on all three of us and made things right for all of us. My role as leader came into play in a positive way and the three of us became a partners while having fun and establishing our roles with each other…anywho’s I’m not one for long posts but this was a great day of horsewomanship :)

Rick took the following photos for us at the end of our playtime:
