Whoo hoo! Another day in the saddle. For several days the sky has been hazy. No blue sky or sun. Not today! "Blue skies, smiling at me. Nothing but blue skies do I see."
We went up Underwood this morning. We parked down on the road and rode up to our old spot. Lots of down trees and branches everywhere impeded our trek up to the road where we used to weedeat and park, but we made it. We had to go through some smallish trees that were close together and rubbed on us and the horses, but Cobie didn't flinch. We went through deep duff and he never missed a beat. He did great again.
Shirley told Lynn that she hasn't been this happy ahorseback in a long, long time. She really likes not having to urge him. He is a stepper! He goes. He follows pretty close, so he won't be able to be behind Keota, but Zigs doesn't seem to care. I heard her tell him before we left, "Pretty is as pretty does and I think you're going to pretty all the way around."She told him had good strong chest. She was sweet talking to him. She told Lynn that she did a good job picking him and bringing home.
His head is definitely Morgan and his big belly and strong chest. Lynn says his feet are all Quarter horse. I have been behind him and I'll tell you, his tail is where that 1/4 Arab shows up. He curls it and holds it up when he's working. :)
I've had three great days in row!
His feet are all Morgan, with Arab mixed. I have had a great three days! This morning on the ridge was so cool. Magical. Looking forward to a good riding summer & fall. LOVE THE BLOG! The BLOG is BACK!
ReplyDeleteThe good thing is I did not stress too much with mom on Cobie. I felt his strength and he is not flighty, but a looker and thinker. He has a few things to get used too. But Mom is so happy. She is easier to deal with happy. Dang.
