Still baby steps, but last night - I laid across Henry's back as he stood VERY
quietly at the mounting block.  I flexed his neck back and forth (left/right)
with reins.  He thought that was pretty cool as he found out that on one side
there was delicious boots hanging there for the taking
 
As I was scratching his belly (as I lay over him), the resident barn pooch
came along, stopped and licked Henry's nose - LOL!!  All the while, Henry had
an amazing sense about him and was very relaxed - cocking his hind leg and in
Henry style (relaxing himself ... if you know what I mean ...).
 
Again - just baby steps ... but I wanted to ensure he was quiet at the
mounting block and didn't mind all my weight - LOL!!!  What an absolute
fantastic feeling to have one of the best behaved ponies in the barn ;-)
