Yesterday morning in remuda's our group did a lot of simulations with Trevor. It was really good fun, and very interesting too. We learned how to teach spins in the round pen as well as problem solving and practicing things like change of direction. We also played a very large circling game, where everyone in the group was a horse and trevor was the person in the middle. Everyone felt very different things from him doing the same thing. Very interesting.
Classroom session, aka demo session was all about sideways and squeeze. Megan went through that with her horse Nexus, and then we had problem solving with Terra. Megan came in again to do a inspirational demo. Her horse loves to jump, and boy can he jump high!
In the afternoon there were a couple of workshops set up, one of which was swimming! Well....getting your horse in the pond really. A few horses swam, but not many. Dusty went in, turned and looked at me, and said 'What now?!' He's definately been there, done it and got the T-shirt!
Just after dinner a few of us noticed a loose horse out in the meadow, and went out to investigate. Turns out that loose horse was Allure, and he was following Linda and Remmer up to the lodge. So, we all went and talked to Linda, and thanked her many many times, for loads of different things. Everyone got frisked by Allure...he's a very funny character. I think Linda will be around more in the coming week to do demo's etc. At least she said we'll see more of her next week!:-D
After that i decided to go to the hot springs again with a few people....it's heavenly! I wish i had one of those at home!!! hehe
Today is the final day of the first 2 weeks! It feels like we've been here for so long, but that time has passed so quickly! We have remuda's, and then what they call the finale! No idea what that will be like.

Enjoy your day and weekend Elle, going so quickly, seems like you only just went out there.
What sort of things are they feeding you out there?
My injury is nearly better, haven't been able to ride for AGES but it's given me time to play with horses especially Solly and the BIG BALL! lol

They are feeding us BRILLIANT food. There's always a good salad option, and the meat is always very very good. There's a veggie option too if you happen to be vegetarian. I think it's great food.
The faculty are very good at making your last day very emotional! I think a lot of people cried!
