When you have a very food motivated herd.
Petal went swimming today! She was disgusted because she tried to roll and got water in her ear. Other than that however, she seemed to really enjoy splashing around.
'The question', she replied, ‘is not whether you will love, hurt, dream, and die. It is what you will love, why you will hurt, when you will dream, and how you will die. This is your choice. You cannot pick the destination, only the path.’ -The Way of Kings
It finally dried up enough to work minis again! Cloud worked in the round pen and with the harness for the first time.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight.
-Proverbs 3:5-6
I had someone ask why it was important that the minis walk on a tarp. It isn't important that the minis walk on a tarp but that they learn that crinkly flapping things wont eat them. The more a horse is exposed to the less likely they are to spook.
Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the lord has promised to those who love Him. - James 1:12
Kaladin's first time pulling. He was pretty tired after running around in circles and I got him to walk for a bit.

Cora and I got Kaladin to walk across the tarp tonight. He even walked across with Cora and walked across while Cora flapped the tarp. The commentary is pretty funny.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started. -Mark Twain
Kaladin's first steps with the harness. He didn't really like the bells or the crupper but he still handled it like a pro. He has come a long way!
