Date Posted: 12:10:28 11/08/02 Fri In reply to: Saddle 's message, "continued!" on 06:10:35 11/08/02 Fri While Jessie and Maggie are cooling out, Tara tries to help Michelle and Alison tack their horses up. "I cant reach!" Michelle exclaims as she tries to throw Dun's saddle onto his back. Alison carefully moves around on her crutches, grooming Ric. The sweet morgan pony blows softly on her as she runs her hand down his face. then she carefully takes one crutch off of her arm and replaces it with Ric's saddle. she carefully lifts the saddle over the pony's back and puts the girth on. Tara tries to help Michelle tack up Dun but Michelle protests. "I can do it myself!" She complains. "I know you can, but i want to help so you can ride sooner" Tara says gently. Michelle pouts, but allows Tara to help her tack up Dun. Soon they go to the ring. Ric was well trained to follow Alison without her holding the reins, to make it easier for her to lead him. Dun walks next to Michelle willingly. Tara helps them mount, then they walk their horses around to warm them up. "Heels down, hands up!" Tara calls to them. Michelle and Alison correct their positions and then Tara looks at Alison. "You only walk, correct?" she asks. "Yeah" Alison replies. "Alright, then you will walk on a 20 meter circle and remember to sit up straight with your heels down, hands up and shoulder back while Michelle trots and canters" Tara tells her. Alison nods and circles Ric, while Michelle works on her posting. "Up, down, up, down, up, down..." Tara instructs. Michelle posts in time with Dun's steady trot. Then Tara lounges her at the canter before she tells her to walk. She talks to them for a few minutes, then takes them back to the barn and helps them untack and put away their horses [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
