Good lesson

So we had our first lesson with Lucy and D today.  Lucy was wound for sound!  She was hyper and a full of it, which made me nervous, but Dean put us to work jogging.  After a couple of trips around to get us both working, and then I was told to go faster, and to let go of the reins.  That's all we worked on!  It took almost the whole hour for both of us to be happy, extended jogging around the entire ring on a big loose rein.  It was just what we needed.  Lucy needs to trot out for the next week or so to open up her shoulders and get her reaching up under her self, and I need to go on a lose rein so I stop tensing up on her!

And by the end she wasn't spooky, and I wasn't tense.  All in all a good ride but I'll sleep good tonight!
