D's father died on Friday. He was a lovely man, who loved horses, and loved sharing his love of horses with those around him. The barn was quiet and sad this weekend in reflection of the loss for D and his family, but also for everyone loss.
So for that reason our group lesson for Saturday was canceled, although three of us and D and C's daughter went out and had a bit of a fun ride in the sun.
We did manage to find out whats going on with Lucy's lope, All that flexibility though her body, and slowness that I've been working on is paying off, but I just needed to push her hips a bit more to the inside to allow her to keep her stride and rhythm without loosing the cadence that the flexibility is building.
We also worked on the trail gate, we had someone open it and we 'pretended' and did all the gate steps with out actually using the rope, and then C picked up the rope and rubbed it all over her then stepped back, and handed the rope to me and I hooked the gate to the standard. So we still have some stuff to work on but we are leaps and bounds from where we were last week.
