yes....

results ....

not so clever on moving the inside seatbone forward, but by the end i was getting some really nice walk trot and even better trot walk transitions.

at first, molly didn't like the fact that I'd changed what i do wiht my fingers/hands, but by the finish it was good.

and of course, she let me on! Guess it must have been the wind on sunday.

so build on that.

the more difficult bit was that i was gettiing somewhere with the legs last week, but today felt as though i couldn't stretch enough. Now i wonder what caused that then?

we stopped when someone wanted to look at molly's feet; she's just taken his shoes off and wanted to see what molly's are like. she was struck by Molly's hoof walls, which of course are strong. piper's will have some way to go. but he's gone lame, and she thought it might be a foot issue.

Good day, I'd say. Any time you make progress it's great.

Don't worry about the legs. Some days our bodies just don't want to cooperate. You can just drop your stirrups and leg your feet hang at the walk. Sometimes that relaxes the tension in the muscles and makes everything work better.

Good girl, Molly--standing for Mom to get on. You are a honey.
