It's one thing to run around like a flipping idiot and it's a complete different thing to see horses striking at people while on the ground, and turning to kick, too! I was not impressed with some of the horses' antics when loose, and even less so when they did the same thing on the end of a lead rope!

Yeah I worried about you getting double-barreled, cat, a couple of the horses came kinda close!
I don't know Liz, I saw you working with Buena a bit on Friday night in the aisle, and she was clearly hooked on to you - so just an off day, maybe, on Saturday? You both looked great, I thought. (everyone did)

When I saw Liz and Buena at the show out in the parking lot. I went up to introduce myself and said that I might not have known what Liz looked like, but there was no mistaking the lovely Buena.
By the way Liz, I got many compliments on the strand you had made for Teddie. I wore them around my neck for quite awhile and liked the sound they made even when I was walking. Thanks, they are beautiful.
I think next time Cat needs a whip for protection against unruly horsies. LOL

I know how to get out of the way. Knocking on wood, but I've only been nailed by a loose horse once in 32 years of riding!

Thanks guys. Every horse has their moments. Buena can be real hooked on, but just like any horse, when there is a lot of other activity, it's a bit more difficult. There are some good things about the Parelli folks when it comes to bonding and hooking on type stuff. I aspire to have that kind of connection (without some of the crankiness I have seen) to whatever horse I am working with. It all takes time, and for now, that's not something I have as much as I would like to. It'll come, though!

She is really photogenic. I like the trot pictures, she has such lovely extension; not dragging her feet at all. She'd look nice under english tack

My friend won the English saddle that was in the prize drawing. I need to try the saddle on Buena before I give it to my friend.

That looks like such a blast! Just one question, where do you put the horses when you sleep?

Buena was tied to the trailer. All of my friend high-lined their horses between trees.
