It's been a lovely day. I took Remy up to the school and he was very relaxed and focussed. We lunged around the school, starting with walk and lots of walk halt transitions. The halt was very good today, he was especially tuned in to my movements. Once he was relaxed and walking out nicely, I asked for some trot transitions which are coming much easier now he's worked out what I'm asking for. I feel we really communicated today.
After my session with Remy I hacked Anky out with Jim and Corky. She walked out really nicely today and it was especially good because I rode her in my treeless saddle which allows you to feel more movement through the horse's back.
Both Jim and I had a spraying session in our hay field this afternoon. There's a thistly kind of plant growing and while it may be quite innocuous it leaves horrible woody stalks in the hay.
So, to finish a busy day I walked both Remy and Bonbon around the garden to eat some of the long grass

Sounds great! I must crack on with lunging but the liberty stuff is distracting me.
