<< Came to a stop light. When the light turned green, I proceeded on through and hit 'resume', a bit too soon I guess! It was ZOOOOM, pulled 3 G's in 6 seconds! We were laughing hysterically and I was apologizing profusely to the horses, promising to do better next time! POWER PLUS! Brigid, maybe I should take 'driving lessons' from you! LOL! >> LOL. Yep, it does take some getting used to! I quickly discovered that one needs to accelerate the truck till it's no less than 5 miles away from your "set" speed before hitting "resume." Can you say 1st gear?! << It was a particular challenge for me since one of the other Fjords with us was in heat and scheduled to be bred again that evening after we returned from the parade! Dusty kept telling me that there was no need to wait 'til evening! >> This is very funny, and a testament to your control of Dusty and his "best friend!" Really, sounds like you had a great time. I know what you mean about your mount feeling different during the parade, proud of himself. Tommes just became a different horse in that show arena. When I looked at the pictures later, I was even more impressed with how nice he looked. I believe horses have a strong "sense of self" and like being looked at and admired. Brigid
