Description is my Joy of Life

Nothing but the sound of hooves thundering across the hard ground and wind whistling in your ears...
Wind pushing past your skin and tossing your hair wildly about...
The delicious smells of wildflowers and hayfields...
Powerful strides surging beneath you with the intensity of a thunderstorm...
Being carried along by a friend who wants to share his view of the world with you...

There is no comparison.

This is my joy of life.

Jake and I cantering around the field (with Rocky hot on our heels ) It was such a fun day... I'll never forget it

Wow! Very nice. I could never do that on the horse that I'm currently riding. He freaks out too easily. Nice job though!

Great job! I know how challenging cantering can be, but you managed to take a picture while doing it!

Cantering is fun It's way more comfy than his trot. This was, simply, a whole lot of fun

LOL Yeah, there aren't many horses I trust to keep on the path and maintain their speed. This boy I do

appygirl209 In reply to mythicillusions [2005-12-29 18:50:25 +0000 UTC]

ha ha yeah, my horse would probably either start galloping madly in a different direction, or stop and eat grass. ^_^

mythicillusions In reply to appygirl209 [2005-12-30 06:41:41 +0000 UTC]

LOL. I know that feeling Jake can grab a mouthful of grass while trotting without breaking rhythm. It's really quite interesting - just about pops you out of the saddle, but it *is* entertaining

appygirl209 In reply to mythicillusions [2005-12-31 02:40:37 +0000 UTC]

ha ha. i rode this shetland pony at camp a few years ago who could trot along and eat grass...'course, she was about eye-level with the tall grass! o.O
Sometimes my horse likes to run through the grass in the corner of our arena which is entertaining, but if he's really got nerve then he'll jerk you out of the saddle to eat some! DX

mythicillusions In reply to Minara [2005-09-29 02:06:57 +0000 UTC]

hehehe THANKS!!! I think that's why I love it so much too! It's the best feeling in the world to be riding a long canter stride, floating across the field with the sound of hooves rhythmically beating the earth..... *sigh* good times...

awww that must be so fun to ride around fields like that.....was it hard to get the picture? taking pictures while cantering on a horse sounds a little hard to me....

mythicillusions In reply to HorsesOrcasWulfsOHMY [2005-09-09 23:07:49 +0000 UTC]

it was a good challenge, but very fun all at once It helps that Jake is pretty rock steady and probably 95% reliable to stay on course, lol
