Had a rather epic horsey day otday... lots of riding involved. Got myself a client! Who will pay me even...! hurrah! I shall ride her hros,e help her a bit with riding the horse nad get 40 dollars an hour... not abad catch I say.

Apparently other lady also interestedin letting me ride and/or taking lessons from me but no high word on that yet so we'll see.

Went on an equally epic trail ride which was all sorts of awesome, had a fat out glalop down the practice racing oval, aaaand just overall had a really nice time doing all this horsey stuff...
Rode William again today as well and he was pretty good a bit of a git here and there but I made it a bit harder on him todat so he was probably just snotty over the fact that I kept kicking against his boundries at random.

And Bexx rode him, she was really good.. .she went from clinging to the saddle with no balance at all two days ago with flailing legs and everything to trotting around (on William, the most uncomfortable horse EVAR) without holding on to anything and trotting circles and everything. She just ranodmly skipped about 10 steps inbetween here and there. She's actually pretty balanced on a horse now, and she can touch her toes! Without dying!

Anyway... just as I got out of the car at the horses I realized I didn't put any sunblock on and it was a nice warm day (27 degrees or so) under the hot aussie sun with little ot no shade... so I got a sunburn... but it's not too bad, just the tips of my shoulders a bit. I do have the most awesome farmers tan ever now. Oh well considering some of the Aussie born and bred people I talked to today had bene bathing in sunscreen and were STILL burned I think I fared pretty damn well. =D

HAve some pictures, but I can't be arsed putting them up now... they're in the public facebook album... Here(clicky)
