lots of trot

This morning we worked early to beat the heat. Less lunging and more riding. w-t-w transitions on lunge improving. A little bit of cross-canter on the left rein. Desensitizing with noisy feed sacks went very well. Shoulder-in on 10m circles good. Introduced renvers on 10m circle. Travers on right rein good, left rein resisting a bit. Lots of trot on 10m circles followed by long trots around the pasture. Got him good and sweaty this time.

Last night ground work only--some jumping, backing, and yielding forequarters. Leading by ropes around all legs now. Ready for ground driving.
