I love my horse.  Even though I had not played with him in two weeks, when I took him out of the pasture today he was as consistent as usual.  I had a nice bareback ride.  Nothing too strenuous but I did ask for some challenge since it had been awhile.  I played lots of games that required him to pick up his feet so that I could really get him moving.  We played lots of games over poles, a tarp and around barrels and/or cones.  It was a really nice session.  He happily caught me in the pasture and when I put him back out he even chose to hang out with me instead of go eat the hay.  What a huge compliment that was coming from him who would rather eat than anything.
