too lazy to walk back down and running out of daylight, and he was there and ready, so... let him in arena after lyric. he knocked a few cavalettis down and then was chewing on the moutning block. let me put the cavesson on with two lead lines and toss the quilt wrap up as a saddle pad. hopped on and rode around. liz called so worked one handed. did some lateral work and toh and tof, not great but not bad. trotted some. loped some. definitely very hard/unwilling to pick up right lead. kept giving me the left. did lose his hind end (right hind i believe) super hard in left lead canter... like jammed it??? poor guy. ouchy for a few seconds but then fine. got right lead twice and rewarded him for it. felt okay once he was in it but couldn't hold it for long. did some nice leg yields in trot and a good halt. FUN!
really looking forward to our western adventure
