I haven't done that with Apache yet. I think I will get a lunge whip just to be prepared as she does like to get into my space when I'm near her.<br /><br />Jesse looks AMAZING!!!! He's looks even better than I remember him looking. Stall rest does him good.<br />And Lady is just stunning! Thanks for sharing these photos. <br />We've still got fuzzy hairy ponies around here, so it's nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel with your sleek shiny ponies.<br /><br /><br />~LisaLaughing Orca Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03562627840013868980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-4347577634461993382010-04-02T22:52:56.667-07:002010-04-02T22:52:56.667-07:00Great pictures!

SOmetimes he will get close and throw kick his butt my way, but I keep my eyes on him at all times. He has never tried to run me down.Dusty Devoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09189765860565288064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-30641205438146521672010-04-02T07:44:07.732-07:002010-04-02T07:44:07.732-07:00Star and I go play in the arena loose all the time...Star and I go play in the arena loose all the time.I just stand there and she hasa great time running and bucking, when she was a filly HOWEVER she liked to play CHASE, and that wasnt cool.I love Jesses deep red shiny coat!Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15534591669650447409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-28156795986522843002010-04-02T05:15:42.002-07:002010-04-02T05:15:42.002-07:00Fabulous pictures!

I should do more with the lunge line, too, but I have problems with dizziness and motion sickness. (Plus, Divna just stands there and looks at me, then walks up to me and puts her head on my shoulder) What is it about those windy days that get the horses all jazzed up? This was a really cool post....John and Regina Zdravichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03750649450237309246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-69191373193845777672010-04-02T03:20:40.115-07:002010-04-02T03:20:40.115-07:00I'm also longe-challenged.

I'm so glad to see him healed finally. They both just look beautiful! I agree, free lunging is so nice to do if it can be done safely. And I find it fun to watch.Cousin Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11120942644496972011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-11749919359802213332010-04-01T22:21:55.901-07:002010-04-01T22:21:55.901-07:00The joys of playing in the arena!!

I will never forget when Skyler was playing in Spokane, and he did a HUGE rear/buck/jump, and then he slipped and fell down and you could see the embarrassment wash over him when he got back up! He just stood there for a few seconds like, "Whoa. I hope no one saw that." Haha! They are just so pretty when you let them do their own thing!Grace's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06934486826691166709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-29897881508024622012010-04-01T22:15:41.109-07:002010-04-01T22:15:41.109-07:00They are so pretty!

Such an interesting breed, isn't she like mostly Tenn. Walker and some Quarter Horse?<br />My Boy is always good free, he keeps his distance and moves around me in a circle. I usually have a carrot stick, just in case! A little swing of that and he'll change his mind!Pony Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6278883765052548247.post-84108032671454528882010-04-01T16:27:42.071-07:002010-04-01T16:27:42.071-07:00I find having a loose horse is safer if I have the...I find having a loose horse is safer if I have the choice than one thats gonna go bonkers on a line and give me bad rope burn, which I have had my share of. I take my sturdy driving whip rather than a lunge whip because if they get into my space they learn they get beat up. Never had to tell a horse more than a time or two getting into my personal bubble is a really bad idea.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14523660446608394720noreply@blogger.com
