This is Rocko. He is an awsome horse. He is quiet with a roguish mischievous side. This weekend was the first time in about three weeks that I was able to ride him. He was very mad at me for neglecting him, and he pulled most of his tricks. Yesterday we started working ground work. I had to learn how to direct him with my arms and he had to learn that he wasn't to stop in the corners. We had alot of fun.

Doesn't he look like a mule.

This is the Circle that we did. It isn't so bad, but it isn't perfect. He wanted to walk through it before I took the picture.

Today two of my college freinds Sandra and Samira helped me make a scarecrow. Our friend Martin named it Herby Hancock. It took us about an hour and a half. We had alot of fun, it turned out quite interesting. My Dad's reaction was, "That's my Hat!". Herby weighs alot and stands taller then the rest of us.

She even had to do some surgey, sewing him up.
