Was a little worried about PJ already and watched him come up to the paddock gait - looking off (not considering the footing - Duh!). Was afraid to see the results of a lunge but low and behold he looked pretty good (not just his fantastic cute good looks but his gaits). I rode with a heck of a lot more confidence today and it really showed. He settled down quickly. I still am taking it easy but again asking him to be on the bit. We practiced some square halts - well our version anyways. I am figuring out what I need to do. He likes to keep one leg kicked back. We should have that nipped in the bud soon.

Ordered a bunch of goodies from Dover. Quic Braid for practice and Nevr Dull for his bits and my spurs. Still thinking of our future I also purchased a hair net - hope light brown is good my hair color - I'm not a blonde any more but am getting grays so maybe I should have ordered blonde - oh well!
