Bareback Hacks

The weather was so beautiful Monday that I zipped home from work, threw on some jeans, and went out and caught Cinna. 60 degrees in January in Missouri is a GIFT. I didn't want to waste precious daylight tacking up, so I just hopped on bareback. She was a trooper, even trotting a little. I didn't have much light, so we didn't ride long, but DH was awesome enough to grab the camera and snap a few shots. This horse is gonna be a superstar with some solid time on her!
Last night we were busy getting shavings put up and reorganizing the tack shed, so I only had time to give Ruby a brief lunge, but hopefully I can ride tonight!
DH has too much free time, so he made me this. I figured it was worth sharing..... lol.

      She's pretty neat! She's not too intimidating because she's fairly close to the ground haha.

      I just perpetually want to smooch her face. It's a real problem.

    I'd say she already is a superstar

      Aww thanks! I think she's pretty special, but I'm fairly biased haha.

    I like how you're getting my horse started for me.

      That was probably about the second time she pulled it off 😂 I don't think he accurately captured some of her insane sideways spooks to avoid stepping on it. Horse eating bell boot on the loose everybody, watch out!

      She's definitely going to be stout (like her momma). And I think she's in the middle of her umpteenth growth spurt. I'm going to need a taller mounting block haha.
