Subject: Galloping Amidala Down the Beach! Author: Jennifer [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 13:26:27 11/16/02 Sat While Ashley was jumping Queenie some more, I unloaded Amidala, and brought her to an empty grooming stall. Like always, I brushed her in circular movements getting the dirt off her. Then, I brushed her over, getting the loose hairs over. I launched the saddle on Amidala, and slipped her bridle on as well. So, she was ready. I reloaded her into the trailer, and drove down to the beach for awhile. I parked and then down by the water, I mounted her. I didn't go in the water with her. (of coarse) We started way down at one end of the beach, and took off! Amidala wasn't going full speed but that was alright, she trotted, then cantered, then sprang into a not quite so fast gallop. It would be awhile until we got to the other end of the beach, but at least it was good exersise. THOMP,THOMP, THOMP went Amidala's hooves. On, and on we went. We were halfway there, when Amidal stated huffing and puffing. Suddenly, a HUGE wave crashed down, and water sputtered all over Ami and me. Ami started going even faster at the feel of the water, and immediatly stopped huffing. We were almost there! Almost! We made it! I halted Amidala, and let her walk in circles on the beach. I even let her walk in the shallow water alittle. When she was cooled down. and ready to go again, she took off! I wondered if another huge wave would crash down on us again. It was almost evening, so it probaly would. Ami kept her same content, galloping smoothly over the sand. Lots of waves hit us this time, the highest splashed up to my neck. We finally got home, and rested. THE NEXT DAY Amidala and I were at the beach again! We galloped the same way we did before, to the end of the beach and back, once agian, lots of waves splashed on us. Ami did a great job galloping down, and up the coast of the beach! MORE ON RACEBOARD! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
