Would you look at Ann, working the horse. She isn't actually using the whip on it, but just exercising it. The horse, a gypsy vanner (that's the kind of horse it is) runs around in a circle for exercise. It's called lunging. And what about me you may ask. I brought this really nice stick for Ann to throw for me, so she gets arm exercise, but the horse came running at me, so I bolted. Scary, I tell you.
Ann is having a great time here, but I must admit, I am too.
Off to the Silver Birch Award celebrations at Uxbridge today, with a pizza lunch. Then Ann and I will read to the kids at the school in Uxbridge.
Cheers from your favorite dog, Shira. More later if I don't get too busy playing with the dogs here, or watching the horses--from a distance!
