I wanted so much to share today with someone and I knew you'd
understand exactly how I felt.It was a gorgeous day.. not too hot... not too
cold.. just enough wind to smell the fall and the fallen leaves, but better then all that. . . I rode Shetan today! Just the 2 of
us. Alone! Just like old times. It was wonderful!
Hard to believe, but I'd forgotten how much I
love the easy feeling I have riding him. He's the only horse where there are NO surprises, I
only have to think what I want to do and he does it done. I'd forgotten how
good it feels not to have to anticipate surprises,
I first rode Rockin Rita [hadn't ridden her since February!!!] Shetan jogged along at liberty. That was fun! but when we returned, Shetan stood stock still on the other side of the gate and refused to come in... I got the feeling he wanted to go back out again, but alone, just the 2 of us. What a lovely idea!
We galloped non-stop through the trails, up and down hills, across a couple creeks, leaping jumps in our path. We had a ball! Back at the barn, I even Thanked Shetan for a wonderful ride soon as I got off. This was the first time I've ridden Shetan alone in several years. Couldn't ride him alone at Hunts Place. It was too dangerous! Rockin Rita would have jumped the cattle card rail for sure and come after us. When I had company I always let my guest ride Shetan because I trusted him so much and knew they'd be safe..
 minutes... or maybe it just FELT like 30
minutes.... *smile* but I actually felt a rush. My face
glowed after our ride. I mean, it really glowed.
Its now 11pm and my face is still glowing. Boy I must have needed this badly..
Thanks for letting me share this with you
