Firsts

On Saturday I drove my two horses, Hunter and Welcome, up to Scottsdale for a riding lesson BY MYSELF!! For years now I have been at the mercy of my dad or Josh, always having to ask them when they had time to trailer me places. Finally, I decided I couldn't wait on them forever so I learned how to pull a trailer by myself. The last time I drove a truck and trailer it looked similar to the one above, so I was very proud of myself for taking things into my own hands. My friend Tara went with me for support and we had a great time. I am still not very good at backing up and we had an episode at the gas station that was a little scary. I'll just say I was sweating it while literally everyone watched me try to maneuver out of there. Now I know why my dad is always so concerned about where we fill up on long trips. All in all it was a liberating, and nerve wracking, experience. I LOVED IT!
