It was a short ride, 30 min, walk only. Jill was pleased at his behaviour near the big, fluffy animals that used to so terrify him, from soooo far away, ha.
He neighed three times at the neighbour horses. Jill thought he seemed kinda needy, really. And, she was seeing the return to individual turn out as a possible blessing in some regard at least.
When they got back for their dressage school, their old bay horse buddy was turned out in the riding ring. She didn't know where she should move him if she wanted to ride in there, and, clearly she was looking for some kind of excuse to take it easy, so she just turned out the pony in his paddock and called it a day. She thought it was okay to do nothing sometimes, and that the walk only session would be good for him, mr. speedy. And, besides, she was up so often nowadays! It was great to be riding only a 10 km trip from home!
SHE needed to be replacing the 3 hours of labour every morning however. Suddenly gone were the days when she was earning $60 for a couple hours of chores - instead of paying for a membership to some club or other. Jill thought she better get going on that bike!
It made her smile the way the cowboy had signed xo a couple times now. Friends did that right? She would not going getting romantic inclings towards him now that she knew better, ha. She kinda felt like he'd climbed a mountain for her, when he collected the transcripts for her under grad, in support of the new university application. and, dropped them in her mailbox. Was he the kind of guy who would swim a river TO BE WITH her? She certainly enjoyed his company, but she wasn't holding her breath.
