Weather finally settled down, today was much calmer and warmer, to the mid-60's, so Hubby and I decided to go on a short ride just to keep the horses fit. I started out in the arena for about 20 minutes, just to make sure what we learned together the other day was still fresh in our minds, and he seemed okay with it. We headed out the central trail northward, then cut back along the lake, though a couple of other riders were galloping along the beach, and for some reason, that got Clio all excited, plus we didn't really like the deep sand for footing, so we cut back to the trail at the back of the dunes for the way home. I did managed to get a few short canters in, mostly to catch up to Clio's outrageously fast trot, and Apollo was perfect, sliding nicely into a canter with no hysterics, gently catching up to Mama before resuming his nice job. It was a lovely ride, perfect weather, couldn't have asked for more!
