I was able to ride Sunday (like I wrote) but, I got to ride Monday too! My little 15 meter circle got a little icey so I was not able to do any Canter work. I rode Keiko 1st, she was really good! She was a little forward. (Which I'm not used to) She is mostly Draft, and a Draft baby at that. So she is kinda pokey and a little dead to the leg. She's only 5 and using every bit of energy to grow. Anyway, she was tight in her neck and poll but after a little flexing to the right, then to the left, then to the right, and so on... she finally loosened up and was amazing! 
After Keiko it was Dixie's turn! She was super! Again, I rode her kinda long and low. Her back was nice and up, loose at the poll, we even did a little lateral work! Well, as much as we can on a snowy 15 meter circle. I am so happy I finally found a saddle for her! We got a used, older Prestige. I LOVE it. So for the past few days I've been doing H-B paperwork, Showing paperwork, and figuring out my summer. Finally got some barn cleaning done! It was not too bad, but everyones barn gets a little scary after the winter.
Hopefully I'll be able to ride again soon :)
