Saturday

Day off but with horse time. Continued building with what we had played with last week. Pond, trailer, carwash, tarp etc. Everything starts to fall in place. I found my horse has problems with the tarp in zone 3 (how interesting!) so I tried to help her get her confidence back. Lot's of approach and retreat. It was better by the end of the session but she hasn't turned completely loose yet. I wonder if this can be the key to why she was bucking with the bareback pad.
