Shivery
The barn owners called me last night. Apparently Rajiyyah was shivering last night from the cold. Poor kid. She is not used to the weather in Tennessee yet. I’m heading out now to try a blanket on her and buy her a new one if she needs it.

Who you asking to pivot?
Barn was awesome. I missed the girls so much. It was cold and getting late when I arrived. Isis knickered at me when I came in and every time she saw me. (happy sigh) I love it when she does that. I had about 20 minutes before it got dark. We free lunged in the…
Kasane’s first trot in the ring
Kasane now officially knows how to trot. 🙂 She picked up the cue immediately. We worked briefly in the round pend and then in the big ring. She was good for two times when I asked her to trot. On the third time, I asked her to steer and it confused her a little. (Too…
