Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday's Rides!
Since I rode Shasta each of these evenings (all except Friday) I figured I will just give you an idea on how it went. Shasta did really good..Monday evening we went up to Woodcrest (which is a 3 hr ride to go and come back) and I rode in the back pretty much the whole way. Shasta did her bouncy thing one time and that was it...she did good the whole rest of the time. Then Tuesday Sharon had a group of riders she was taking and I told her I could lead the group. That is what I did and Shasta did perfect the whole time even when we were going really fast across the one field and the other horses were coming on behind her. I was so proud of her :) Then Wednesday morning she did really well then too. I was so happy with how she did the whole week long. I spent some time with Daisy but not near as much as I would have liked too...she is still over on the other meadow. I want to spend some time with her and riding her this week :) I did get to spend some time with her Friday night getting burrs out of her mane...she stood really well for me. I was so impressed :) Friday evening I rode Lightning bareback for about half an hour :) That was my week!

Tuesday and Friday Evenings :)
Tuesday:
I had gone to Sharon Monday night as well but with the rain didn't do any riding :) Tuesday night it was raining as well but I roundpenned Shasta! She did so well. She only turned away from when changing directions once or twice..all the other times she turned toward me. She did follow me too..it was so awesome how she followed me all over the main ring. Then I got her to back up as well...at first she didn't want to but then I got her to back up like she did it all the time. It was just plain down awesome!!
Friday:
I did get to ride Daisy Friday evening. Since she is over on the meadow with Speedy (Shasta is at Sharon's on her meadow) I rode Sundance over and got Daisy. Once we got back I gave Daisy a bath. My cousins Sarah, Rosie, and Kate came to ride. So I hosed Curly off to because he was very dirty :) This ride we just walked and Daisy did really good. Then once my cousins left Sharon and I took Daisy back to the meadow :)

A Week's Update!
Monday:
This evening we went to Wendys again. I rode Curly bareback, Lillian rode Sundance bareback and Jonathan rode Jack bareback...Sharon rode Bean but not bareback. We first went into Wendy's then on the way back we checked in on my girls. Shasta and Daisy were both doing good. Daisy has a puncture wound and it is healing fine. I honestly have no clue what made it..it wasn't another horse that much I do know.
Tuesday:
I got to Sharon and was discussing with her what I want to do. Since my horses are over on the meadow I wanted to get the one to ride. So I went and god Daisy and rode her back to Sharon..Since Sharon had a group of three riders coming at 7:30 we all sang first...then we tacked up and rode out. I rode Venus and Lillian rode Daisy and they both did really good. Since I was leading and we were cantering Venus shied a few times but overall she did excellant. I was really impressed with her. We didn't take Daisy back that night and just left Shasta by herself over on the meadow.
Wednesday Morning:
I had slept at Sharon the night before and then went to work with her first thing. Once we got back I saddled up Lightning and ponied Daisy back to the meadow by myself. As far as I know this is the first time she ever was ponied and she did excellant. We even did some cantering and I had no problem with her at all. I was really impressed. Now both my horses pony which makes it so nice!
Friday:
This evening Rachel came riding again. I came straight from work so Earl Dean picked Rachel up at home here and brougth her along over to Sharon. She rode Misty as Speedy is favoring hs one ancle for some reason. I rode Venus again and Sharon ponied Speedy. We took Speedy over to the meadow and brought Shasta back to Sharon's place to put in her meadow. Shannon came along (she is the one that owns Kate and Dusty..they actually are leaving in October due to moving and also having TONS of pasture at their new place). We just walked the whole way there and the whole way back but Rachel did really good and so did Misty ;) It was a lot of fun!!
