Well I finally got my baby weaned off of Rose.  Working on getting her back in shape to hit a few races this winter.  I'm so excited/nervous to start running again.  I ran her the first of October when she had only been off her baby for about 3 weeks, and ridden 5 times.  I couldn't help it!  She ran like she always does, it's just like riding a bike! lol!  I was shaking when we got out!  We ran a low 18 in a pretty good size pen.  It was a little fun show type deal that our Hosemans Council put on.  We ended up getting first!  I didn't  care, it just felt good having a horse i know i can trust under me!  So my goal for next year is to run this little circiut aroung home.  Crossing my fingers i can keep her sound.

I have also started riding Matts horse Sassy.  Getting her ready to be patterned.  She is a fast learner and sometimes gets frustrated when she doesn't remember what I'm asking of her.  Once it clicks she's good to go.  I will haul her with me when I go this winter.  Maybe hit some Exhibition with her!

No real point to this post, just me rambling! LOL!

 

You are not ramblin you are thinkin out loud.  Great job on your run.  Just keep going and havin some fun thats whats important.  God I do sound pathetic telling u all to have fun.  I do believe I am really not having fun with no horses around.  So I shall continue to live vicariously through all your rides.   Go Ladies turn some for me......

Turnin thanks for the encouragement!  With the psycho horses I have had the last few years it's feeling REALLY great to be riding my mare again!  She may not be the fastest but she is fun to ride!  I know what to expect from her and thats so nice!  I wish you were riding more or at least able to see them!  Buddy is going to bite you with his ear when he sees you! LMAO!

That is the beauty of the 4D barrel races.  You will be fine and should place and get some checks in those. 

I know!  Im lovin the 3 and 4 D's!  It's alittle confusing for NON barrel racers to grasp when you try to explain it, but other than that I think it's great!
