Rumors of snow which came true. Just a dusting but enough to make driving hazardous.

PJ was in a good mood - of course he got to roll in mud. Who wouldn't be in a good mood? Turned out we had the whole place to ourselves. I would have had Wyatt in with us the entire time if I would have known. I did a lot of change of direction. I worked on not trying so hard for canter departs and that worked really well. We worked on a few trot walk transitions and walk canter walk. Coming along very well. Our serpentines were nice once I got the right side of his neck to supple. I really need to do carrot stretches before hand.

Towards the end, L came through and I asked her to let Wyatt out. He forgot about not coming into the arena. He really expects PJ to kick the ball for him it is rather funny. Wyatt looks at the ball then at PJ. I am starting to acclimate PJ to the fact that Wyatt will soon be up with me. I held Wyatt up by the saddle and let his feet press into PJ. PJ's white above his eye showed but he really didn't care that much.

Wyatt didn't really notice the snow at the barn but when we got home he sure did. Can you say bananarama? I got some video of him. He had the biggest grin on his face. Can't wait until it is deep enough to roll around and/or snowboard in.
