Friday Fotos: Pearly

My friend, Lynn, was away the other week, and asked me if I would come exercise her mare, Pearly, while she was away. Long time followers may remember Pearly from her days at SRF with me. She has gone on to live a life of luxury with Lynn, and is boarded at the same farm that Dancer went on trial at before he sold last year. It's always an honor to ride at this farm (though I admit I feel pretty under dressed 99% of the time). Pearly was, of course, a perfect lady each time I went out to ride her. It has been years since I sat on her, and all the dressage lessons Lynn has been taking have really paid off! Pearly's training has come such a long, long way. Pair that with the fact that she's the rock steady type, and she just makes for a lovely ride. We spent our time alternately riding around the gorgeous indoor and hacking out around the farm. It was a nice break in my routine.
