One a day, plus iron

So pony lessons are on Thursdays most of the time. I usually ride a lesson-barn horse and most of the time (but not always) that's the reasonably sensible and honest Mystic, a black hony of about 20 years old with not-a-lotta legit training. When she arrived, she rode like something that had been used for unskilled gaming efforts, like barrels, poles, timed events but not the people that win. The people that do-not-win. But she's been at lesson barn for a couple of years and she's doing better and kinda has some skills these days. I like Mystic pretty well. She's all right and I kinda know how she is.

But today was a Tara day. Tara is instructor's aged horse who is working on... whatever you do that you need to be halfpassing. Looks like (I just did a cursory glance through the tests) that's third level. (I do not have a lot of time for levels. I want to go sideways and basically I only give as much of a shit about the other stuff as it relates to better-going-sideways.) Anyway, I think she shows Tara 2nd level but they are (with DLB) working on halfpassing and it's... going, kinda.

( So how did that go? )
