Tomorrow I am going hacking on Melody.... with Beth on Ollie ( show pony) and Emily on Eva ( fell pony) I know that I have planned to go before and chickened out because I wasn't sure how Melody would re act ..... Well today I followed Beth and Melody out hacking on foot on the route we plan to go tomorrow..... apart from being very looky she spooked to spooks.... I could certainly cope with that she was fabulous on the main road. I know we are going to be able to go out as Eva is super hack.

Ekksssss excited for the morning

She is such a lovely mare.
The thing about hacking is there is some stopping of us. You can hack a calm, sensible horse ever so happilly for a year and then go out next day and find she is bonkers. And as a result you make up your mind that you have got too old for this nonsense, above all in mid winter, and decide to stop.
And one needs friends or RIs to remind one that horses do have bad days and it isnt normal and on average things do turn out well and you feel better (not worse) for the ride.
I hope you will go on long term and regardless of any blips.
Hacking does take one's mind off other things and one's health is better for it!
