>>> I'd forgotten how pretty she is. Well done Runa. Nancy
She is a pretty mare, but she went through some ugly duckling phases! She seems ready to start a little more "advanced" training. Her steering is pretty good, her stop is solid, and she understands leg cues for lateral movements. She's not particularly worried about going out alone, but not 100% confident alone either. So, we'll take her out with another horse first a few times to see how that goes, and if she seems fine, then Cary will try taking her out alone. He likes going on the trail, and since "finesse training" is not his thing (what an understatement!) that is his job. She's a good sized mare, built much like Skjoni, so I expect she'll do fine with him up. Karen Thomas, NC
