Ride'em like you'd like to be ridden.

Trail ride from the house. Got home in a rush. Maggie said she'd ride with me but they were almost ready. Tried to rush Kit, and ended up back in the round pen with the side reins on just watching her go. She wouldn't walk. Half Halts weren't working. Circles just made her worse . I haven't the energy to do this today. So back to the ranch, into the round pen and on the side reins she went.

Took her all of 10 minutes of dragging herself around the round pen at a fast trot to figure out I wasn't the one pulling on her face.

She walked about three minutes and will probably trot for another 45 before she slows down enough to think walking would be easier. Maybe I can nap while she's out there.... I can dream can I? Wait. It only took her 4 start walking. There might be brain in there somewhere under all that energy. Smart little mare. Maybe it was the lounge chair and can of soda that clued her in. Or the clack of the keyboard of me blogging about her. LOL
