I'd like to start some traditions on here starting with acknowledging birthdays.  You guys game?  Post your birthday and we'll send out a gift when it comes around.  I'll start, December 2.

Carol crater Burrising is what my mentor Richie Roberts called groundwork.  I use it to describe the exercise where I ask the horse too stop straight on the fence, then roll back.  

Stephen Gowling I'll put in the order for nice weather now!😆

Lynn Morrison stay strong.  The sun is coming!😀

Michelle Werner I always want them to move around either in the round pen or on a lunge line until they relax.  I'll change directions several times along the way.  That will usually tell me where their head is.  If I have a horse at a trot and then change direction quickly, he'll almost always tell me how fresh he is. If he squeals or jumps around, I'll just keep working on it until I can get those changes and departures nice and quiet.  Have fun!!

It feels like spring around here.  Anyone else enjoying the weather?
