Today I was on a Thoroughbred Quarter Horse named Cinnamon.  She was chestnut with a tiny white star.  We did everything the same as what we did the last time.  There wasn't anyone else at the lesson so I had the whole ring to myself.

     We went through our exercises and the trot and the walk.  Cinnamon kept going to the gate because she thought she was done.  I had to keep turning her around to keep her going the right way. 

     When we were done I led her out of the gate.  She gave a big long sigh because she was happy she was done.  Then I took her tack off and groomed her.  I gave her some carrots I had saved until after the lesson.  Then I led her through the barn and into the paddock. 

     I like Cinnamon and Angel the same, but maybe Angel a tad bit more.  Cinnamon doesn't like to listen, and I have to hold a crop to make her trot.  Cinnamon thinks she is the boss most of the time.  Angel is slow but steady.  I like her because she is smaller and easier to mount and dismount.
