Yeah so...I totally didn't ride Sam today...
*cough*
Basically today is the last day of a week long school holiday and my friends and I were planning to go out together but some of them hadn't done all their work so we re-scheduled.
So a couple of my other friends and I decided to go out for lunch and then go to the park (where Sam happens to be kept) to chill and have some fun.
Then I tell my mum that the big group thing got canceled and she goes "Oh...well you can have a ride today then if you want."
Now, I'd already organised to go out with my friends and I didn't want to blow them off but, I knew it could be a month before I see Sam again and didn't want to miss my chance.
My friends said they were cool with coming to see me ride for a little while so that was sorted.
I texted V to let her know I was going to be down the field today and she said maybe I should ask for a different day to ride on so that I could have today with my friends and a proper ride on Sam.
That's when I got the idea.
We were going to go to the field anyway (kind of). So why not ask my mum for a different day and go and see Sam anyway?
Well, that's what I did.
(all unedited)
Grooming in my secretly smuggled from the house change of clothes haha.
I just hopped on bareback so that I wouldn't be too long as my friend doesn't ride/interact with horses much (though she loves animals and had a good time considering :) she even unpicked one of Sam's feet.)
I have also realised it is impossible for me to look good when riding...
Trotting :)
His trot is hard enough to sit with a saddle, my thighs are gonna hurt tomorrow...
I like the shape of his neck in this :)
Love hiiim
Cantering...stupid bush/tree
Cantery cantery

See, when cantering bareback I'm having such a good time I forget about the transition back to trot and how much it's going to suck.
Good boy for putting up with my bouncing all over everywhere
I'm fine in trot, except for the crazy fast one after canter haha
