Sorry Hey and Burr!!!

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted lateley, I have been busy with other things, the last time you heard from me was new years, but that wasn't much, so the people that watched the brodcast thanks a ton for watching! So this past Sunday we all got a crazy idea and we loaded up Chuck and Jack, and took them to my grandmas house, and then on monday or tuesday (i can't remember) we came down and rode for an hour and a half, we would have ridden longer but the horses were going good and it was cold, we stayed in the farm yard, just because the horses were stil getting used to the place, they have been here before, but we wanted to make sure they were okay. We worked on one rein stops, and then on one rein riding, and just general walk stop, no trotting because it was slick, we rode in a grassy area, but to walk across the drive I slipped and about fell many times, and Chuck had a few little slips too, but thats the nice thing about a farm, you have the grassy areas and the fields and the trails, so today me and roni are going to go do ground work out on the trails with the horses, you want to work your horses in many different enviorments so we are going to work them out on the trails, so I will get some videos of that for you guys so we can show you some good ground work with your horses. My favorite trainer is Clinton Anderson, I have all of his down under horsemanship shows set to record, so I watch every one of them, If you followed his re-training with the OTTB you would have seen the obstical course and how you can use the land to your advantage when training, it trains your horse to use the thinking side of his brain, not the reactive. It is cold! Its 0F and with the windshield is -12! So were going to bundle warm and keep ourselves moving!
