Hot pink ftw






I had a SA-WEET outfit on. In efforts to keep professional and look the part/respectful while riding I wore a new polo- hot pink from AE. It fits great and the color is so fun- everyone kept saying "Karley where are you I can't find Karley"... told my trainer that I was helping her out so she didn't lose me since there were three lessons going on in the big arena at once ;)

Lesson last night which ended up being a private lesson.

I got Henry, tacked him up, lunged him outside in the really big round arena and got on.

Trainer was talking to the BO so I started hacking around on my own. He was a little lookie as no one was in the arena but us initially but I pushed him forward and he got over it. 

Trainer came down and we cantered and did lead changes and then ... jumping. There was a liver pool in the course SO I was a little eh but Henry doesn't mind so I shouldn't care.



Started out warming up over 1 back and forth.

Then we did 1 left lead to 2 left lead to 3 right lead to 4 a few times.

Then we did 1 left lead to 2 left lead to 3 right lead to 4 right lead to 3 left lead to 6 and 5 a few times.

After that we broke it down to 3 left lead to 6 and 5.

Then right lead to 6 and 5 a few times.

Then 5 to 6 a few times and ended with a good trip through 6 to 5.

Henry was good.. Trainer said I did well (thank you Jesus).

Cooled him out a bunch.

Untacked, hosed and vetrolined, gave treats, cleaned tack, took him to graze, grained and kissed him good night.






Wednesday off, Thursday lesson ... idk Fri/Sat.

  8. I have a pink shirt as I typically just ride with a dry fit type shirt tucked in when it is hotter than haiti here. People don't normally say too much but I am at a barn that is predominately kids so there are all sorts of bright colors!

    1. haha nice! I typically like a dark color to hide sweat- I work my bootie off in most lessons- but this is a great color! We have people from all walks of life at the barn so you see all outfits under the sun!
