12th Ride! Snow in Santa Fe, April 14
So today I rode a frisky Scarlett in blowing snow. (Normally you would see the mountains behind us.) Our twelfth time undersaddle. And she got this pretty polka-dot blanket for the cold upcoming night. Scarlett is clearly feeling her oats--she has much more energy now. Quite a handful! My challenge is to let her move forward forward and not clutch at the reins to feel in control. I can see I am going to have to learn to let go and let her move out, and hang on, because she is really quick.
