Back in the Saddle

 Yay! We got to ride today. And we got to go pick up Funny!!

We headed to Ashland for our "light ride" back after his injections. He felt good!!! No neck biting and he felt good behind. Granted, I didn't collect him up but still. We hacked around Ashland and had a nice ride. We did a little trotting and even a tiny bit of canter! We finished in the XC field and Caroline had put out a few new jumps. It was so hard not to pop over them. But nope, not today Holly.. be good! Dan was so dirty and nasty though! He desperately needs to be clipped! That is on the agenda for tomorrow. So after our ride, I just rinsed him and then we went to go get Funny.

He was a little rude to her. Butthead. He wasn't nasty but was a bit overzealous in his behavior.. more on the bitey game side than the mutual grooming side. And once we got home.. I unloaded him first, thinking he desperately had to pee, then I got her off quickly so she didn't try to turn around and halfway down the ramp, he lunged at her. Which meant she spun. NO DANIEL... we don't need baby girl spinning on her freshly scoped stifles. Ugh. I managed to get him turned out and her in her stall. And then I put him in his stall to keep her company as he gets to go out tonight. I left them alone for maybe 2 hours and came back.... he had beheaded her stuffed animal! Daniel!!!! Seriously!? You are a heathen sir, a heathen!
