Callie was brilliant today, though taking pictures always makes me hate myself for not being able to take lessons anymore.

We rode in the field out back & Callie was good to warm up, but then tried to bolt...I knew there had to be something BIG because Callie does not bolt. Well, Sue and I were talking about how it must be the train, and all of a sudden a deer came running out of the woods! He was beautiful, but the horses wanted nothing to do with him.

Once the deer issue was over, we rode to the trails out back and jumped some logs and took pictures. Both ponies were very good!

Disclaimer..I haven't taken a lesson in over two years. And the last jumping lesson? About three years ago. So...without further ado, here are some photos of our ride!
