which_chickI took the grey idiot out for a drag Wednesday after work. He, the red idiot, and I made it out alive, seven and a half miles later.
She kicked at him three times and bit at him three times and bucked once when he cantered. I beat her for all of those bad horse behaviors. Other than that, we had a fine old time. We'll be doing it again on M/W/F next week so check back to see if we've died yet or not.
Tomorrow we are not having a horse outing because I have tickets to see Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard instead.
At Tractor Supply, I bought a new block of salt (under ten dollars, mom) for the field and checked to see if they had fetlock bootie things like I wanted. They did not have 'em. They did have Tasha at Tractor Supply, who allowed as how she might be interested in a ride-before-the-ride function of the sort we're kind of planning for the weekend before the ride at Ede's. I need to draw some kind of map for that because somehow I got in charge of planning. At least the state forest has all new signs and stuff so we should be able to find our way around.
I held the horse out on grass and fed her a can of grain. She didn't really want to talk to me, but oh well. Life is rough all over.
Saturday/Sunday this week is districts, which Cass is attending. We're going to try to go riding one of the two days but I'm not sure which day it will be. I need to check up at the fairgrounds to get rubber thingies for the stirrups and La's backordered helmet and my dinky little girth (not here yet) and like that. We're waiting on equipment and it's getting down to the wire, here. V. annoying.
