Clinic

And so Phoenix did really fine at the clinic and he faced some of the objects much better than I had thought he would. We didn't have time to address every object that they had but the water, plastic jugs, blow up penguin, wooden bridge, the culvert, and a couple of others.

I put him in his stall for a while and watched the next clinic. They were just getting started and after a bit I decided to go and saddle Phoenix up and I practiced what I had just learned out in their jumping arena.Things went good enough that I got on and went around at a walk and a bit of trot and called it quits.

By the time I got back to the clinic I saw that there was one rider that had a camera around her neck and she was trying to take pictures while she was having her horse work the obstacles. Or maybe just of obstacles themselves. So I went out and offered to take pictures of her and her horse. They were doing a good job and I hope I got a couple of shots. Then there was another person with a camera that wanted a couple of pictures.

This clinic got done with and the next one started and I met one person I knew from AND Stables. Her name is Judy and her and a friend came in support of one of her friends that was riding in the last clinic. While I was sitting with them her friend started talking about Parelli and that she liked Clinton Anderson's way of making things more clear but they were similar in content. I jotted that name down, "Clinton Anderson".
