Walking, Trotting and Cantering Beauty!!
This evening I got to ride Beauty!! We left Sharon's at 6:30 or a bit after. We walked till about 7:30 (we went on some trails and in the field..we went in a big circle) and then we got to this one field and Sharon asked if I was getting used to Beauty's trot (since Beauty didn't know about keeping up we had to work on that. If we fell behind I would trot her to catch up but we worked on Beauty walking fast so that she would stay caught up and not lag behind) and I said yeah and I also said I wasn't scared of cantering her because ridng Beauty doesn't/didn't scare me. So Sharon took off and I asked Beauty to trot. She trotted and then once we had trotted a bit I asked her to go a bit faster and she CANTERED for the first time with a rider on her back as far as I know and boy is it smooth. Now her trot is another thing...it is more bouncy but once she evens it out a bit it got smoother and I enjoyed trotting and cantering her. Then we slowed to a walk again and walked for a bit. We turned into a different field and started trotting and we trotted for a good ways. It was LOTS of fun and I must say I am so proud of how far Beauty has become..Sure she is still a spoiled brat but a better behaved spoiled brat =D She has more respect for humans and seems to really enjoy trotting and just everything to do with riding. I am just so happy!!
