Wishes Goes on an Adventure


I got out at Shiloh at 8:00 a.m. on Saturday, and it was already horribly hot! I can't wait 'til mid-September when the heat will finally break. Colbert had his first lesson with me and Sabine. He is fantastic at a walk, needs to learn to balance himself at the trot and relax, and we won't discuss the canter for now. Let's just say 'he don't like goin' right' - as in: to the right. So, we will concentrate on those issues for awhile.

Later, Eric and I took Gus and Wishes outside of Shiloh's gates. It was Wishes' first time, although Eric and Gus are old veterans. She was completely relaxed and just had a great time hanging out with her buddies. Eric took a couple pics of us walking along the air strip. We were a bit worried a plane might come in, but all was quiet. Hopefully, I'll get some more pictures soon. Colbert has changed so much in less than 2 months. He looks like a different horse.
