An Intruder (not really), Groundwork and Riding Jess, and Some Pictures!

Daisy and Freedom not sure of the intruder

Jess :)
 
Today I worked with Jess again. I first worked her in the roundpen and she did so much better than Monday. So much so I decided I am going to hop on her and ride a bit. She was a bit sluggish and I think it was mainly because I had worked her first in the roundpen and she isn't really used to working so much. I mainly worked her at a walk and trot..no cantering. Alyson came and we decided to put Jess in with Daisy and Freedom because I want to at some point pony Jess off of Daisy and maybe that will help Jess with her cantering. So we figured it might be a good idea for them to get to know each other on some somewhat neutral ground. It went quite well. :) Freedom seemed to be more bothered by the "intruder" than Daisy even. It was quite amusing to watch.
 
Tomorrow I am planning to go to the Horse World Expo in Harrisburg for the day. Hoping to learn a lot as well as get some pictures. I am also planning to stay for the evening Theatre Equus. It has been something I have wanted to do for a while now and this year it finally works :) So we shall see! :)
