Horses!

I rode cici bareback for the 3rd time today! The first two I just walked on her this time a trotted and cantered for a total of like five minutes! Cici was fantastic and I wasn’t slipping or sliding but it was extremely painful!!! I put her tack on and ended the ride cantering in the field. Not sure how you guys ride bareback at faster than a walk! lol

For me bareback is more comfortable than saddle, but my horse isn't boney on top. I haven't loped bareback yet though

Canter is smoother than a trot so I’m sure you’ll be fine! I just pretended I had a saddle until it got too painful!

I just found out Cici actually has to go back this Sunday. I’m trying to spend as much time as I can with her these last few days! The good news is I might be able to get her back for a little in the winter and hopefully next summer again.

I also moved from the east coast to the Midwest and yep, it seems to be a Midwest thing. I see a lot of "hay" where I am that doesn't even look edible. Yes, it is absolutely dangerous! My supplier (the 5th in a year) luckily knows what they have, and I am glad to know what is in the hay I feed, but most people just bale whatever. It is mostly referred to as mostly cattle hay and silage bales. They'd mow lawns if they could! Pasture testing is also a must in some cases. I watched a case of fescue poisoning in a pregnant mare after someone said their pasture was ok for mares but didn't test. It was tragic. The owner was inconsolable. It is part of the reason I always want to know what I feed.

Most people i know around me atleast dont bale the sides of the rode. They have specific hay fields.
They leave the cut up sides there or dont cut the grass/weeds anyways.
