Cold weather week continued

Monday and Tuesday visited with Try for a couple minutes. She was in the pasture under two blankets.
Thursday: weather just a bit warmer so we played liberty stick to me and online with the new feather light 22' line which I love it feels like a cross between on line and liberty.

Friday: Yeah 48 degrees--a heat wave--Try and I rode in the ring. Gently as neither of us were feeling real ambitious. A little game of contact at the stand still. A little trot and canter. Canter--emphasis on relaxation after wards. Folding my arms: backup good but not sideways so that is something to play with in the future.

We finished by riding out of the ring over to the new play paddock, walking around in there to check the footing for use as a possible riding spot then back to the barn and Try was nice and relaxed the whole time!
