Speaking of which.. CJ's a bit long in the foot so I was gently trying to 
keep her moving by barebacking on her (much ot my chigrin).. and she was 
tolerating it..  just very mild walks and trots...
 
 
Well last night I got on her and she was high!! still was barebacking and 
walked her up to a pole to step over. Opps! My mistake! ;)
 
She got high about something, started piledriving/crowhopping and I tried a 
dismount that didn't work. So I said the heck with it and just relaxed and 
slide off to the side.. landed straight on my back. Nothing to worry about 
except a few stiff muscles today.. but can't ride CJ since I note that 
something happened today and she tore off the shoe on her front left doing a 
fair amount of damage to the hoof. She's long enough to where I think we'll 
be ok when the shoer gets out.
 
And here I thought she was over doing that kind of thing. ;)
 
Tee hee!
