Horse (bare) back riding!


     Hey guys!!!!   Guess what!   At horse back riding yesterday, I rode bare back two times!  Here is the story,
                The first time I asked the groom if I could, and he said," Sure.  Put this bridle on Merry Legs( a tiny little white horse!)   So me and my friend  Sarah put the bridle on her, and just swung our leg over her back( she was THAT small!)   And we just rode her around.   So one time when Bradyn was on her, she said,"  I want to trot.   So Sarah grabbed onto the bridle and started jogging.   So when Merry Legs started Jogging, Bradyn wasn't ready, and just fell right off, onto her bum!!!   Thankfully, Merry Legs is only 2 feet tall!   
      So, after a good ride,  Rachel( our teacher) came up and said it was time to start our lesson.  We jumped half of the time, and did gymkhana the rest.  But for once, the horse that I was riding( called Twinkle Toes, who is known for how fast she is,) would not go fast!   I mean, I was kicking and squeezing with all my might, but she would NOT canter!!!   But after Rachel smacked her on the bum with a riding crop a couple times, she cantered heartily!
                Now, the second time I rode bare back was when I finished taking off the saddle, and I was about to put the horse in the stable, when one of the grooms told me," Do you want to ride the horse up to the paddock( pasture)?   Then I replied," But I already took the saddle off!"   " No!" He said," Bare back!"    DO I?????!!!!!!!!!!    So after a little help from the groom, I got on the horse and rode it up to the paddock, BAREBACK!!!   It was awesome!!!   But, the groom told me I wasn't aloud to go faster than a walk, so just in case you are wondering, I didn't gallop up! 
 
I will share my adventure next week!
