I love weekends!
Yesterday, John and I went horseback riding together. I was a whiney scaredy cat because I rode Petey, the sometimes bucking bronco, but John put up with my nervousness quite well.
Petey was really well-behaved. I used his Bitless Bridle on a trail ride for the first time, and he was much more comfortable and happy with that than any bridle with a bit that I have ever tried on him (there have been many). I highly recommend this bridle for anyone with a horse that tosses his head or prances or just doesn't feel comfortable. I bought the leather bridle - it's pretty pricey, but it is a beautiful bridle. I'll take a picture of it on Petey this afternoon, if I get a chance.
Anyway, I'm busy, I have work to do, I'm going to ride again this afternoon, and I have to go grocery shopping.
Oh, and the Incredibles is very much worth seeing.

With your love of horses, you are living in the wrong place. Come to Kentucky when you are ready to retire.

That bridle sounds a whole lot better than a bit!! It always seemed cruel to me to stick a metal bar in a horse's mouth. Glad there is an alternative now!

I always say my horses are "a few sandwhiches short of a pic nic". My one horse Kip is STILL freaking out over the fact that they cut down a tree by the arena. He is convinced that the stump is going to jump over the rail and eat him. *rolling eyes*
