Oct. 6th, 2009 08:49 pmi am beyond delighted and into obsessed with this horse
I can ride him well, or at least better than any other horse I've sat on in the last mumble4yearsmumble and I can feel my outside leg and my outside hand in a way I have never before. Weighting my outside stirrup stands him right up in a canter circle. Astonishing. I am in steady contact with the woman who leased him last summer ('08) and she has been telling me useful things and handing me objects I'll need.
finally found a raincoat for him, and increased the waterproof quotient with a can of scotchguard, just in time for the rain tomorrow
J (the sane barn owner, also appallingly young and looks like a pixie) says he is looking fatter - she may be right
