Managed to steal another ride from the weather (that's what it feels like when I get in a dry ride during wet weather) this morning; yay! At the top of my long mental list of goals today was to have a horse with a foamy mouth, indicating relaxation. We've been missing that the last couple rides at least, and those rides weren't stellar in other ways as well. It's all connected; it always is.

Towards the end of yesterday's ride I was racking my brain to remember all the things I'm supposed to do (oh, to have the time and money for weekly lessons!), and when I corrected my position and got out of Lance's way, he was suddenly able to give me what I was asking for. Of course.

Apparently I rode better from the git-go today, as evidenced by Lance's improvement. And this:

Double-yay!
