What a fantastic end to the day!
After tea I decided to spend some more time with Eastar practising some of our homework/Parelli games, so went around to his field. I wanted to do a recording of our session, not because I’m good (far from it) but so friends could see & offer opinions/tips. Martin was playing (saddo) army gaming poo so that left only the children! Heyho worth a go.
Anyway the session wasn’t our best, but with giggling children & 2 dogs bounding around it wasn’t so surprising. If you are curious enough to watch our first attempt I apologies in advance for the seasickness you’ll be left with. Truly I may as well have tied the camera to a chicken!
Wobbly out of focus film aside, I was happy with the vibes after our session so decided to go for a ride. I decided we’d ventured down the drive since that’s where our riding issue started & we easily made our way right to the very bottom & down the road too. I was so proud of us both as this can only mean we are both more relaxed/trusting each other.
I could have gone for miles but could sense Eastar becoming a little tense & I really wanted to end on a good note/not push him too far, as he’d done so well & gone at least 3 or 4 times as far without a panic (a few worry moments easily calmed with a hand on the neck & gentle words). I also knew the children were waiting at the top of the drive to film us coming back up & we’d been at least 20 minutes already, so we made our way home.
If you want to watch our slightly embarrassing film you can do so Here...., but you have been warned about my Parelli noviceness & also the children’s wobbly filming.
well done on your ride out, certainly getting more trust with you two now ;-)
