Setting up at Devon

A bunch of us helped set up at Devon on a picture-perfect day!! There were some hiccups along the way with the pain in the ass GC who gave us no direction for our piece then was inflexible when we didn't complete it as he expected. but we had fun anyway!

After Devon, I went home to cut the grass, then to the barn for.a short ride. I tried Daniel in the new snaffle bit and he was a bit of a butthead. He kept trying to take the bit and going where he wanted. Leeandra's voice from days long gone came into my head, and Kara had similar advice and I wouldn't let him win.

The best part was after the ride. I had him to carrot stretches and was rubbing his ears. He was LOVING that. He just lowered his big head down to me, and was in horsie-heaven while I scratched his withers and inside his ears. We ended the ride on an high note with some TLC!
