The process of training horses and training yourself is never ending and on going. This blog is a place for me to gather my thoughts, express my frustrations or to share triumphs in my continued equestrian education.

Riding Alone
It seems to be very difficult for me to motivate myself to go riding alone. It can also be dangerous, but so is riding a horse, or driving a car or flying an airplane! On Monday, I forced myself out and went for a ride. I brought along my Blackberry Storm and had it play music from my play list. It actually was very fun, riding along, singing along. I could walk when I wanted to walk, I could trot when I wanted to trot. Wow... how odd, huh? I don't know why I've become so co-dependent, but I hope that I can change. I'm working on it.
Here are some shots for my ride:

I worry about riding only because you don't know who you'll run into in the forest or even at the trail head. I used to ride at the State Park at Lewiston all the time by myself--but even then my husband hated it. I loved it. There's no better bonding between you and your horse than when there's no other people or horses!!! This year, I have a gun, and I'm going to ride with it in my pack just in case. But if I'm going to ride as much as I want, it will have to be alone as well.
