Gallop!

Thursday lovely relaxed grooming in barn at liberty...Try and I. Lookin forward to relaxed easy day. Went to her newly mowed pasture and took off lead for Try to graze or whatever she wanted while I set up question box and got saddle etc out. Try got worried after awhile and began galloping hugely all over the place. Played catching game and we got back together on line but she was still very emotional and powerful. Switched to 22 foot line and played circling game...wild and emotional until I asked her to quit when she was starting to tear up pasture. Went to round pen but by the time I got there she was calmer and trying to figure out how to please. Don't remember the games. Left, saddled up, still emotional trotted and cantered until she was calm. Then back to the barn for full spa treatment bath. I was particularly struck by what a powerful horse she is!
