I would love to event. I rode at a local stable and did novice event training. I never had the oppurtunity to own and event horse or show. And I had a fear of the cross country portion. But since my confidence has gone up and up, and I would love to get back out there. I was hoping Ink (my ottb) would be my event horse, but I am not sure. He is lame now and even if he is sound, he might not be able to jump. At his own will he has jumoed. One afternoon I had both Errika and Ink in the arena and was free-lunging them. I had a small verticle set up for Errika to go over, but Ink decided he wanted to take a go at it. It was like he had been doing it for years! He would probably make a good hunter, but I doubt I will ever be into that spectrum of the horse world.
Where is my riding going to take me? That I am not sure of. Many of the girls I used to ride with in lessons are competing and have gone through their horses. I wish I could be out there with them, as I know I rode just as well as those people. But who’s to say now. I should’ve stayed in my lessons. It’s a mistake I have learned from.
