Sunday's Ride!

Yippee! I got to ride. It is windy and a bit chilly but decided to ride anyway. It went very very well and I am so proud of Navajo!!! I decided to ask him to move his hindquarters only twice and he responded almost immediately both times. I didn't ask for it again! Then we trotted and cantered just a little. I rode on the road too! I am going to teach him that when I use my heel it means to move off of my leg when i use my calf it means to speed up! I thought of that the other day and Used it a bit today and He did good. It took a little for him to pick it up but once Navajo figured out what I wanted he listened really good. Now I have to make sure I cue him right!! I think we are getting somewhere in our training! Also he is doing good of not walking off when I sit on him. He is definitely a better horse than when I first got him!!

So far I am doing a really good job on either Riding Or working with Navajo every day but tomorrow I probably won't get the chance to because we are going to can mixed fruit (cocktail)!! So I probably won't be on or get to ride. Have a good evening.
