August 9 - Thankful..

..that Hyde is a good boy.

I caught up Hyde after I put Gidget away and we did a 1/2 hr ride.

In the arena this time, so we worked on trotting and did two laps at a lope.

We even did a big figure 8 at the trot ... so we are doing good.

And I figured out the tight hind quarter turn to the left too - so we are doing that now.

And to the right, we went fast enough in the turn that he had to do one of those "jump cross over" steps!! And I had to grab for the horn. LOL
