Bonnie Progess

Rode Bonnie Saturday & Sunday. Lunged her on Saturday because she had a couple of days off and was in full heat. She did well though. Just some walk and trot and rode a little outside. It was near dinner time so she was a little focused on the food truck. Sunday was a better day. Got on her right away. Walked and trotted at first. She gave me some attitude going into the trot but I quickly pushed her through it. Time to get real tough on her. Then there was the fun part. We started cantering around the arena. Good thing my balance is coming back and the saddle had a horn. Lot's of attitude, rock and hump bucking for part of it. Once we got through that she did a lot better. Reluctanting willing and minimal steering but she'll get better. We ended by walking once around the track. I thought she was going to roll under saddle in the crass clippings a couple of times.
