Riding Violet!




I've enjoyed riding Violet this summer. I go early in the morning, groom her, lunge, often do Parelli at which she excels. And we take leisurely rides, practicing our walking, trotting, cantering, circling, and trail work. She's a complete pro at crossing the bridge, stopping and standing on it, backing off. She's a pro at walking into the square. She's just a gem. And what I like about her the most is that she always has in the forefront of her mind that she wants to be part of the team -- the team of two -- Laura and Vi!
