Yesterday afternoon was perfect - after riding in the outdoor dressage arena, I walked Riva out around the pond on the property. And the best part...my husband joined me on Cheers our OTTB :) Cheers has been living the semi-retired life the past couple of years, but that is coming to an end. I look forward to many more rides with my two 'guys' before the snow flies.
I decided at our saddle fitting appointment last Friday to quit riding Riva in the Kieffer and ride bareback, borrow a better fitting saddle, do lots of groundwork, until I can order her County...and then it will take 12 weeks to arrive. I am blessed with kind barn owners - they offered for me to use a couple of different saddles until Riva has her own. So - looks like I can get back to regular dressage lessons :)
Cheers and Lex - maybe 5 years ago?

I am in full agreement about fall, it is my favorite and now having a horse it takes enjoying fall to a whole new level. You also just inspired me to try to get my husband out and on a ride this fall with me. Thanks
Hi Kelly! CWD is a super spendy brand of saddle. Their website is here: http://world.cwdsellier.com/?currentPage=Collection&family=SE
I have never owned one (and I'm not likely to, sadly) but they are lovely.
SP - thanks for the info! I will check out the website,,,spendier than County?! I don't think I want to know :)
Aww such a cute picture. :)
I'm excited that you get to start lessons again soon. I love taking lessons. It helps keep me on track and also can prevent learning bad habits especially when training a green horse. I'm looking forward to lessons with Chrome someday.
