Loco. Crazy. Energized. Spastic. Good words to describe AhD the Curly today. First, he was pretending that he had to pee. He would stop and stretch...but I KNEW he didn't have to because he had just gone. It was his game to try and snatch some grass, but I was on to it. I think this patch of grass was just too tempting. Then, for some reason, he was jumping every rock, log or twig we passed over. This is a new thing, and very interesting. Most of the little jumps were like crow hops. He was just full of it!
We did a few stream walks. As you can see, the trees are all leafed out now. Didn't take long! The woods were gorgeous, but I didn't really get to loll

igag and enjoy the scenery. Had fun anyway. hey, for once I was color-coordinated. How do you like this, Harold?
Coming back out of the woods, AhD decided "his" steers must be horse-eating creatures. He started acting just like he did when we ran into the moose a couple of weeks ago, and he fooled me for a while. He was doing the stallion snort and basically running in place. He earned the right to back up about 50 times on the way home. Silly boy! :)
Susan , It looks great colors and all, I was wondering if you had woodticks around there???
ReplyDeleteI must admit your woods look beautiful, must be a joy and wonderful smells riding there.

Hey Susan, Just a thought. When Reese did the things AHD is doing, his back was actually sore. I know it sounds strange, but the peeing and the crow hopping over a jump were signs for me that something was wrong. I thought he was acting up too, but after a chiro adjustment, he was back to his perfect self. ;-) He still has to pee more than any horse I know, but not like before. I would maybe get that checked out if you can. ;-)
ReplyDeletep.s. Sure is great seeing Harold working his way around the new format!! Even posting his own stories, that's fabulous. Sorry I didn't comment...it has been so crazy here. ;-) Keep it up Harold!
I am convinced your AhD is one of the smartest horses I have ever seen....and he is lucky to have your love and attention.
