Afterward we went for a quick walk down the driveway/road with another horse. Soonie just walked around like he owned the place, on a loose rein and very happy to just chill. He even conquered the farm's Scary Corner of Doom. I'm hoping we can get on some real trails and maybe even an open field here shortly to play around and have fun. I can't stand being in the ring all the time. Overall, today was an awesome day. I love my boy and feel very lucky to have such a star.
