Matt and I went on a ride by ourselves this weekend.
He rode his horse (Fritz).
I rode Winchester.
This was my second time riding Winchester.
The first time, he was an absolute dream.
He has been on all of the rides with us and was a perfect angel.
Well, something went wrong.
There we were, right between a steep hill down and a steep hill up and Winchester decided he did not want anyone on him anymore. I did everything I have ever been taught to do on a horse. Matt was able to get close enough to me with Fritz that he was able to grab the halter and get the bit out of his mouth. I got off of Winchester carefully and got onto Fritz.
Matt tried to get control of Winchester.
It was rough.
He tried to buck Matt off.
Matt used the halter and plow drove him home the whole way.
Fritzy was so sweet and gentle with me the whole way home.
Fritz got to graze on the front lawn while Winchester watched.
The next day, we took Coleman with us.
This time, I rode Jasmine. She's pretty much perfection, but it was my first time riding her.
I love her!
Coleman rode Teddy.
We were going to pony the two wild mustangs, but Teddy wasn't having that!
So, we just enjoyed a nice calm ride.
Matt had to catch two loose neighbor horses.
He did it like it was nothing but a thing!
And all was well.
