C was able to take a few minutes last night and did some video. I learned a couple of things,
1) too baggy dark sweater makes me look huge up top!
2) Our jog is awesome
3) I'm perching a bit at the lope, not a whole bunch but in getting me out of the habit of leaning too far back I've gone a bit too far in the other direction. (also its a bit of a defensive move to protect my back)
4) Because of the perching I'm not rocking back in my seat enough to push her off the hind end. (which is why you only see one direction of a lope)
5) I need to work on my lope departs and practice setting her up better (as witnessed in the jog video to the right!)
Lucy is short, but the horse that is in there with us is a hair under 17 hands.

I think you and Lucy look very nice together. Videos are great though for seeing what needs to be addressed.
Thank you ladies! I'm very happy with her and how far we've come in 2 months.
