Grundy and I tackled an obstacle course this weekend.  The tarp thingy was her least favorite, but she did them all and gained a ton of confidence along the way.  

So, I'd liken my little filly the most to Ike, with her visceral responses to things.  When will you have more videos of jumpy Mr. Ike, and how you've worked with and through his nature of being jumpy and suspicious?  Thank you!

I'll use this post to add a little brag though, I rode the filly on Sunday and other than her (pretty standard) initial "ahhh!" when you first sit up there, she did great - even with my neighbors hooting, hollerin', and blowing off fire extinguishers.  Free desensitizing clinic!  :)

When your off billet tears through several holes at once, you get to buy a new helmet!  She was doing great, trotting a single ground pole, when seemingly out of the blue she bolted.  She went left at the gate, and I didn't.  😂  I saw the torn off billet afterwards - maybe that's not what caused the ruckus, but it certainly did not help.  I'm getting too old for this junk, but it's a long way from my heart and nothing a little ibuprofen won't fix. 👍 

Do you have a list of clinics, or a general travel schedule if we wanted to meet up with you somewhere?  Thank you!

Grundy and Niko wish everyone a happy holiday season and a Merry Christmas!  

If I manage to make a video this weekend, what is the process for getting it reviewed?  Post it here?  Upload to Youtube and send a link to the email?  Thank you!
