Thanks Shade, that was a nice ride
Lovely weather today. I've got a bit of a headache, but knocked it down for a few hours with decongestant and a generic aleve so I was able to enjoy a nice little ride on Shade. She enjoyed the generous treats as I brushed and tacked her, and the bites of winter grass as we sauntered down the road to start out. Mostly walked, she picked up a trot a couple of times, I would have slowed her from a canter as the snow was packed and slick in spots and so I did not request any trotting that was not volunteered. She did pick up a power walk on the way home, felt good. She also did a few arab 'teleports' Didn't slip or slide doing those; they were smooth to ride since she wasn't doing her stiff leg braking first.
