Notes: Second day of ponying Drifter. I'm blown away at how easy he is to work with. He doesn't pull on the lead or get out of control. Once or twice he thought about getting playful with Jack - who promptly let him know that was not acceptable. The first time ponying - Jack seemed to give him a lot of slack...letting him get out in front or what have you. This time he kept the colt back in proper position (about my right leg) without me having to correct him.
We went farther than I intended today but he handled it well. We crossed washes - went through brush and over downed cactus logs - he never skipped a beat.
Really like your new baby. Very nice. Sure has some nice muscling too. Look at that dent down his butt. You could roll a quarter down it and it wouldn't fall off til it hit his tail.
