...Western?


Ahh and so the week of weirdness continues. Hey, its Friday, I still have some of the week left to squeeze in some more weird! So today, after a year of english-only riding, my old western saddle emerged from the dust of the tack box and faound its way to Gypsy's back.

Sooo...Haha. She was actually pretty dang good about it. I used to ride her only western, but that was back in the days of..."riding consists of just trying to stay on". So on I hopped, and she wasn't thrilled at first. But I set her to work, and I actually rode her exactly like I do english. So technically I was still riding her english, she just happened to be wearing a western saddle. Haha. So we worked on keeping her head low and in frame, and after a little bit she was trotting fabulously around! Even tried to get a little bit of a slower trot so that I could sit a little easier all western-like, ha.

And now back the saddle goes into the tack box for another year. Ha.
