Saturday went much better than Thursday did, though it was pretty unhorsey. I came in just as Rose, Julie, and Buzz were leaving. Ate lunch and hopped on Keno bareback. As usual, I wasn't planning on working him very hard, but we got into a groove with our figure eight canters. He was doing much better about trotting through the middle. He's a tad reluctant to pick up his right lead, but that's because he gets excited and high headed about it and doesn't want to drop left lead first. We did get a nice transition, right lead, one trot step, left lead.
Next I worked on fences for a long time. I hate fences. If I had more upper body strength I think I wouldn't hate them nearly as much. But I got Niki and Star's fence up, and Bella and Tillie's fence too. I tried fixing Lady and Papillon's run but settled for mediocrity.
Instead of working Luca, Robert and I unloaded approximately 80 bales of hay from the yellow truck and his truck. Buzz had baled them yesterday, and it was scheduled to rain, so Robert loaded them all up in the trucks and drove them indoors. I was on the truck and Robert was stacking them. He looked appropriately mortified when I teased him about sending the girl scared of heights up on the truck, until I told him it was just a ladder thing.
