I decided to head down to my stables and give Dream a work out. I wanted to just use the lunge line to see how much he knew so I took him out of his stall, clipped him into the crossties nearest his stall, and began grooming...

As soon as Dream was groomed I clipped the lunge line onto his halter and led him into the round pen. I began lungeing him at the walk and then trot carefully noteing his movement as well as change of gait. Then we started at the canter...

As i pulled in i saw Carole leading Dream to the roud pen. I got out wanting to see how Dream moved. I sat down by the fence far enough away to not disterb Dream.

As he cantered around one side of the pen I suddenly saw a large double oxar that I hadn't noticed was there possitioned right in front of him! I tryed to stop him but it was too late. Dream approached the jump, gathered himself, and saied gracefully over the top not even brushing a rail. I stood there open-mouthed and gapeing at him. The stallion trotted over to where I stood, still perplexed and nudged me encourageingly. Suddenly relizing what he was telling me I unclipped the lead line, hooked on a leadrope, took hold of his mane and climbed onto his back. I set him into a canter and headed him toward the jump again...

As Dream flew over the oxar, my mouth dropped open.The grace the horse had was amazing. Then seeing Carole with her mouth open like me in laughed to my self. Then she got on top of Dream, i knew what she wasa planning. I would have done the same thing.

As I led Diablo around working on his halter training, I also noticed Dream. As he flew over the jump, my mouth also dropped open. Diablo nuzzled my shoulder. (greedy little brat ). I led him down to the ring, and Dream didn't seem fazed at all! What an amazing horse.

I was in foxies stall grooming the Shy mare when I saw Carole on top of dream heading towared the oxar. Foxy who was finally at complete ease when I was around,started looking for the carotes that I usaly gave her after i fineshed groming her. But i didnt pay atention dreamwer cleared the oxar so natuarly that I still wasnt grasping what hapned. Finally after a long minutes i realized what Foxy was doing to my pocket. I throw my head back in lughfter and handed her the carotesshe deserved.

She nuzeled me afactionaly I returned her the same afection and finally realized that it was time i lounged her. Caroel was very good about exrecizing her the past few days and every time i mentioned it she seemed to say it was fun for her' but I felt me and foxy where ready. I whanted to go congraglate Carole but she was sarronded by so manypeoples that i thought it wold be best to wait. I quiqly slipped on Foxies halter and led her toards the farthest training ring where I knew for a fact no one was using today. I tied her to the feneces where she stood her ears perked up trying to senes what was hapnning. i took the whip and exchanged the rope for the lounge line. I struck the ground once ordering her to a walk.

She walked gracefullly around the ringes a few times before her ears chought a woping sound and changed elegently into a trout. I changed the diraction a few times. seeing she was on the exzact right lead every time i decided to slow her down to a walk. she walked around the ring sevrel times not droping her head to relax but Royaly keeping it up. Before finishing after an tyring half an hour setion I decide to try her at a canter. slashing the Whip acrosse the cool sand i saw The briliant horse cantring evenly prefcting every foot step. after a few breathless moments I brought her down to a walk so she couled be cooled up before retyering to her stall.

I led her to her stall notycing that dream was already out in the paster and that almost every body was ahdeled inside the office. I rubeddwon Foxy peting her afactionaly and groming before gving her a extra treat. I looked at MY buteafull horse before Heading into the ofice to check what was going on and clean all the equipment I used so far.
