not much 2 say...

i don't have much 2 say. um, last night i was with knotch and there were some deer in the pasture. i hooked the rope 2 his halter while he ate, and a deer jumped the fence. he took off at a full run around our pasture. i got on Dolly bare back. and it was really fun cuz, in order 2 get him 2 stop, i had 2 keep him mind focused on something else, so me and dolls herded him around the arena. finally by some luck we cut him off the same second he stepped on the lead rope, so he stopped and i swung off and got him calmed down, it took about 20 min. of herding 2 get him 2 stop. but it reminded me how much i just love riding, and its not all about drills, but more being in tune with the horse, and dolly is the only horse i've ever truly felt that way on. going on 9 years of being riding partners. and wen i was up on dolly bareback, full out running with knotch, it was like me and dolly were connected and the 3 of us were a team. it was the best. and as soon as dolly knew wat she was suppost 2 do, her old cutting training kicked in, and it felt like we were... almost flying. i no it sounds ridiculous, but 4 those of u who have ever really connected with somebody or something, i mean really connected, u understand me. dolly is probly the only horse i'll ever really connect like this with, to bad shes 28, not much longer til... nvm, heading out 2 the barn now, l8ter ya'll

not much to say... sounds familiar.

Phelps is a roid-addict. He sucks. And, if it wasn't for him, the Aussies would be flogging your american asses!

Enjoy racing with Knotch :)

2 days until...
