"I Told You So"

So, I was riding Mandy today, no wind, cool and yet not-so-winter air...really nice!! Things were going just fine. I was galloping Mandy and she snorted a: "I'm soo tired!!" but I-in my usual state of dreamland on my friend- ignorantly ignored it.

I took her down to the bottom of the field and let 'er rip. She was soaring up the field as I felt my body slipping off her warm withers and before I knew it, I was on the ground and an imaginary load of bricks was laying me down.

Sore but un-injured, I rose to my feet, a little loopy from the ever-rising bump on my head, and looked at my horse who had stopped a few paces in front of me.

A little laugh rose out of my sore body as I noticed the expression on Mandy's face. She stared at me as if saying..

"I told you so."

They know it too. They can so tell when you are not in control or don't know what you are doing. Very cute, I would love to meet Mandy someday.

Oh yeah! Could we see some more of Mandy?

Sure! I'll have to send my walking camara brother out to take some! (I am NOT good at taking pictures) :)
