Feb. 24th, 2022 01:44 amToday I am grateful for:
Warmer weather today, after our cold spike.
I was able to put the goats back outside.
I had a lesson today with River, and we worked on something new. Long-lining, which is training the horse from the ground to be driven ahead as if you were in a cart. You don't stand right behind them, more like behind and off to one side. River handled it well. Asking him to move ahead of me is quite different, since all of our work on the ground until now has been with him beside me. I am hoping to take what I am learning home and applying it to the ponies this summer.
I came home and alternated between watching more "Walking Dead" and doing the dishes and laundry etc.
My thing learned for the day would be the work I did with River and the long lines, which is a little tough to translate.
I also watched a video of an animation created by Salvador Dali for....Disney.
