Today was good...I rode Holly for a while this morning. I cantered(which is the gait up from the trot). It's rather nerve wracking to be training a horse. Hannah can't ride Holly really to train her in certain areas cuz when you just start to teach a horse to transition up(ie make them go walk to trot or trot to canter) you don't want to be thinking about anything but getting that gait out of them, so you don't wanna think about stearing or anything like that. So Hannah need some one to put her on a lunge line(a long lead clipped to the bridle), but she doesn't have anyone she can really trust. Hannah took my reins away (which you don't need anyway to control a horse because I ride with a bitless bridle so I use my seat and leg anyways but reins are just so comforting) tying them up and I just grabbed hold of the grab-strap(a piece of leather clipped to the saddle on english saddle cuz they don't have a pommel like the western saddles do

And we cantered...twice...It's been two years since I last cantered. And I had fallen off...but I love Holly, she moves really well. Her canter is really nice and comfy. I'm actually remembering how to ride. I also went on a hike with Hannah and her mom. It's really exciting. I hope to get some pics of me riding.It was at the golden eagle reserve but we couldn't actually go to the reserve cuz they're roosting...but maybe some other time. Other than that not much else is going on. I gotta call progressive cuz their website is lame and can't fit my whole last name in their forms...and it just seems wrong to give them a wrong name.
I miss Kevin so much. I keep dreaming about him. I can wait for him to come down and visit. It'll be so nice to curl up with him and love him. Hmmm so nice to cuddle I miss it 20 days till Kevin is here.
