Wednesday, 24 May 2006: About 20 minutes in the saddle today before he started getting tired.  Having a bit of a problem keeping him moving, probably because I'm too heavy.  It'll get better.

This first pic is me and my boy, all ready to go.  Note that there's no blue step today, I just put my foot in the stirrup and up I went - no problem for him at all anymore.  The pics below are us in the round-pen, learning how to do this thing called riding.

The last pic, at the bottom, is Blue telling me his opinion of the whole thing,
"Sure, you can ride me.  Sure, you can brush me down when you're done.

Then, I'm gonna roll in the dust!"

Getting ready for another day, my boy and me
We begin On our own for the first time
