To buy or not to buy...that is the question...
I rode a horse today...
and i liked it.
Two and half hours in the saddle, and i didnt hurt.
(DVT damage, wide horses, and riding dont go well together)
(DVT damage, wide horses, and riding dont go well together)
The most sensitive horse I have ever rode- i just flexed my calves, and off he moved.
On the bit and very forward, very responsive, like comparing a ferrari to a ford truck
we rode through some things and was able to come to conclusion
because he has a good head on his shoulders,
and I have patience,
we could work together well.
he also drives,
and
the dreams of having a small one horse sleigh
started to appear.
i had a smile on my face afterwards,
because while holding his lead, chatting with his owner,
he occasionally would lift his velvet nose to gently blow into my ponytail
("i like you")
and I would turn slowly into his breaths,
softly blowing back...
("i like you too")
I rode a horse today,
and
I liked him a lot.

Grinning from ear to ear!! I say BUY!! :)
ReplyDeleteBuy, buy, buy!!
ReplyDeleteSo, when do you bring him home? Or is he already there???? I'm so glad you've found your ride. Give him a hug for me, okay?
ReplyDeleteSounds like a winner...can't wait to see pictures and hear more stories! :)
ReplyDeleteIt does not get any better than that. When is the unveiling?
ReplyDeleteI never knew until I got a horse how special they are, they really communicate with various expressions and movements. There is nothing like a horse that is your buddy!
ReplyDeleteYES.
ReplyDeleteSounds lovely...
ReplyDeleteOh Gawd, i cried. Buy baby, Buy!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Sounds like the beginnings of a long and beautiful friendship.
ReplyDeleteWaiting to see the photos of that new friend at your place...SOON.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!! Sending a high five and a hug.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Bring him home!
ReplyDeleteThat made me cry happy tears too, mainly because I would love a horse that rides and drives, but I just can't fit another one in the barn. I love the feel of their breath. There's something so therapeutic about a horse that fits you.
ReplyDeleteWhy not? Sounds like love at first sight!

ReplyDeleteAh, but there is someone at home that has to get along as well. Don't forget your baby... and he owns you.. Hope it all works outs cause there is nothing better then an easy ride...
