I rode Glory this morning. It has been at least 8 months since I rode her. She is a very big strong horse, half TB and half Percheron, 17+ hands and large for that size. She is a very nice horse to ride. She is so wide that it is uncomfortable for me to ride her for a long time. Since seeing a video of me riding Magic, I think I need to improve my independent seat. Glory is so big and strong that I get tossed around on her back. Maybe she is the horse that can help me improve my seat. We just rode around in the round pen. She seems to remember everything. We will move onto the arena soon.
Carole and Mara came to visit this afternoon. We had a nice visit to the barn. Mara rode Scottie and Laddie. Scottie moves a little faster than Laddie and Carole was nervous watching her daughter loose on the back of a horse even if it was a pony. (It may have bothered Carole and Madelyn but I saw no concern or caution from Mara.) We have had a dry spell and good rain recently. The fresh, tender, green grass makes Laddie tender footed. (light grass founder) We did not ride Laddie much because of that. Mara had a good ride. No problems, no fear.
