If we did by some strand of luck, head out to the national forest, or the beach I'd probably take the palomino pony Princess that I've been riding and showing for Kenda. This pony, I'll tell you is a superstar. She will jump, or at least attempt to jump anything you throw in front of her.
This is the stadium round at RockingHorse Equestrian Center. |
Malachi is not so fond of her. I've kind of already established a bond of sorts with Princess pony. She comes running and talking at the fence to me, she always greets me with a nicker even if I'm just coming back from the tack room because I forgot a whip or something. She's a super sweet thing who doesn't need to do lessons. I want to steal her ~ lalala. But really, I do love her. You just have to love the cute thing. But Malachi always comes first, he's a given. When I am riding her, he's away from the giant round bale behind a tree playing sneaky spy on Taylor the traitor with his two best buddies Sugar and Hurry. Those two are for another day...
What I've been getting at is that I really need to step up and get out to the barn more so that way I can successfully avoid trying to choose between my horse and the horse I'm training. Sometimes you just don't have time to ride one over the other, and one of them just happens to get tossed in the round pen instead of the full process. I still have that homework to do guys. I promise that one extra day in the paddock isn't going to kill you. They still don't believe me.
Can't you see how many problems I'm running into with this beach thing? I obviously want Malachi to be my first beach-goer over Princess because I can always look back and say he was my first ride at the beach. We could get some phenomenal pictures too. It would be more beneficial to him as well because the poor guy needs to go different places if I expect to event him next year. Princess already has all the experience she needs as far as different places go. Malface on the other hand - he needs some experience.
We just need a day. Next weekend would probably be a rush because I have a show at Green Cove Saturday for Princess, and if we were going to go at all it would be Sunday. I can only think about the fact that I have school the very next day and how exhausted and sore I'm going to be. But by then I have no idea what the weather would be like. I fear it's going to get extremely cold the weekend after the next. This is so hard! The forecast for today is shining right on an open schedule! Maybe my words can do enough... I'll come up with something...
