Miscellaneous thoughts as I begin a new season of horsemanship

It's spring and that seems like a great time to regroup and rethink about goals, todos, where Try, Spiderman and I are headed.

1. See April goals sub blog

2. Try canter in the field for something different but on the biometrics list: Take buckets and set up pattern so I can be precise. Basically two squares for a figure 8 using most of the field. Canter uphill through the middle--my weight perhaps a little forward. Then vary what we do on the straightaways and downhills. Also can canter up hill and lope downhill or trot uphill and jog downhill. Keep changing it up so Try asks what next rather than make assumptions.
3. Right lead canter for Spiderman--block inside front rather than bend body.
4. Remember to go slow for both, be more perceptive and mindful of my mood.
5. My physical fitness is a high priority for numeroud reasons!
6. Ask Dan list: Spiderman learning to take responsibility.
7. Good to play on line with Spiderman in back area of the ring.
