I really like this

"The first thing that a rider must learn, if he aims to become an artist, is the art of relaxation. This means detachment, serenity, enjoyment of work for the sake of beauty, unconcern with success or failure, praise or criticism. In this sense - the power of total concentration of the mind on the senses - the relaxed rider can become the central pivot of the movement of the horse, an integral part of the horse, and all is reactions will be so immediate that they will elude the eye of the most observant spectator. Total harmony of movement between the two bodies is the essence of the art."

- Udo Burger, The Way to Perfect Horsemanship

First real ride on Coal and I could end it with a little schooling session for a new rider. He's super nice.

I don't consider myself to be an "equestrian". I'm too poor and ghetto for fancy labels

So old Blue here finally decided he would throw a pitch on a ride. Total fluke. He learned about some soft ground and threw a pitch in a hurry. One rein stop worked like a charm. Something we work on all the time before and during rides. Got him to stand quietly while another horse rode away and he experienced some walk over horse gates. Also saw some bear tracks, super neat

Quick trim on the Blue horse. They told me no one could trim his backs. I beg to differ lol

this is probably one of the best articles I've found to help owners understand the road ahead. It can be rough, it can dead end, and there can be lots of windy turns with few straight ways. Maybe you're the lucky one that finds it's course easily.

Well, all my tarps were in use due to some recent rains, so why not use a seat cover to work on tarp exercises ?
