Serious Horse Play – *Video*

Erin_RidesAs y’all know, for my birthday ever year, I do something I’ve never done before.

Last year, I decided to learn how to ride a horse. (I’m slightly afraid of horses, so this was a big step for me.)

About a month after my birthday, I hooked up with Erin King, of All the King’s Horses, and she started training me in dressage once a week or so.

I rode a number of horses throughout my training. First there was Diego, seen here in the video. Then there was Sedona, until she threw a shoe. I ended up riding Harley in the competition last month.

All I can say is I’ve made progress and performing in a horse show at my local stables Dixon Ranch was the capper.

I’m super pleased I won a 5th place! Although there were only 5 people at my beginning level, so technically that’s last place.

All well… I guess it’s time to get right back on the horse!
