The new year continues!

What a day hahaha. I decided to make use of some free time and JI. At 8am I rode my baby Stretch! The class was a little rough, but my favorite part was after when they asked the other JI and I to go to the Moore with a girl who was scared to lope. We boxed her in and got her to lope! She loved it. Seeing her overcome her fear made me so happy!!! Then I had some time to eat and relax before JI at 11. I got to ride Drover! He was really fun! His lope is super nice and he's very responsive. Then I watched Nighthorse. They rode with flags today which means I need to start bringing my flag boot again. Then I went to white ropes for some practice since red is still cancelled. I was able to get my 60ft out! I was so happy!!! Then I saw GoldDust in Crimson :( I'm glad to see that she's better. I'm not too worried because Stock Show moves a lot of assignments around. Then I signed out my horse and I had Warrior again! He did really good. He was a bit unsure about the propeller transition but after a few tries he got the hang of it! We only got two drills in because we had to restart so many times. I hope things get better after move ups. I rode 1-6 for Flag and 3-6 for Carousel. I sure am loving riding team so much! Being a senior has its perks I guess hahaha. My instructor wants me to ride Indigo next week because I'm bigger than the girl who is on him now so she thinks I might be able to control him a little better. I gotta figure out Warrior's flying lead changes though. He also sweats A LOT. I have to spend 45min to an Hour toweling him off every week. For Vaulting my partner was at stock show sales so I rode with someone else on Count. We got to be in the volunteer so that was a nice treat! The girl was too small for me to do tricks though. But I was pretty tired so that was okay. She also wanted to unsaddle so I helped her out but let her do most of it. Overall a pretty good day.
