Ok, so I had another lesson with Sloppy today. And I have to words on the subject, can't move. But holy cow was it worth it; I'm learning to stop moving my lower leg while I rise trot and does it ever hurt! Just goes to show how lax I have become while riding without a coach on the ground yelling at me! But as I stated earlier, it was well worth it. Donovan was a super star, yet again I might add. I can't wait to get him out back and take him for a long awaited gallop across the beautiful green fields. Sloppy and I might go to the barn again tomorrow, oh joy.
Well I can't wait to see dearest Parsephone, I haven't had the time or energy (thinks Sloppy) tog o and see her but oh how I have missed her. I've talked to her everyday on the telephone since she arrived back in town. Sounds like she is doing well in her present and past situations. Well I hope to go and see her if Sloppy and I don't end up going to the barn. It has been nice writing about my new achievements with Donovan in here, it is so unfriendly at the barn now-a-days that it's gotten to the point were there is no one to express your excitment with anymore, it's a shame, but the achievement is reward in itself and just sharing a moment of pure understanding with a giant, powerful animal that does not understand our language, or for that matter we do not understand their language. It is beautiful to be and move as one being. It lives ture to the quote: "You ask me to show you poetry in motion, I show you a horse"
59 days till Grandview!!!!!
