Breakthrough??!!

Steve sent more pictures and reports from Camp.
He said that Paloma got a "C" in tying, she rarely stands still and pulled back several times. So he is working on that with a little exercise in which she gets moved over by the rope. She usually pulls back so they let go the rope on her head, and start over. Eventually she started to figure it out. I guess she got good enough to get tied to the tree for lunch - a PRIVILEGE only for horses who get gold stars on their tying!















And she and Pearl get to run! Steve says Paloma will never catch Pearl.... she must be really fast to outrun Paloma!




And last, but not at all least, Steve introduced her to the Silly Bridge. It's a teeter totter bridge.















Steve said that the Silly Bridge is also known as the Breakthrough Bridge, and once they get over it a lot of things start to come pretty quickly. I can't wait to see what happens now that she's gotten over the Breakthrough Bridge!! Steve says she's very proud of herself when she's on the bridge.
