Riding in the Sunshine

It was nice to ride outside when the weather was warm.  The sunshine was nice.  The warmth was nice.  The horses were happy to be out and so were we.

Haley did exercises when she was on the horses.  They were mostly stretches.  She got really good at listening to the owner. 

She would tell her to twist and sometimes point to a side of the horse or to the back and Haley would twist.  She sometimes used the horses tail or mane to get her attention.  I don't have a picture of it, but she would even tickle Haley's nose with the horses mane.

Here Haley is bending backward for a stretch.  She would also give the horse a hug and pat them on the neck from the saddle.
