Longer walks and trail rides

I have been doing short 15 min or so ground lessons with Flash the past week or so. However I think it is time to start introducing longer sessions of work. I am going to start adding in 2 or 3 days a a week pony rides out around the Christmas tree farm and around the fields. As long as the weather permits the rest of the summer and into the fall.

 Today was a fun ride through the Christmas tree farm. Deuce set out at a nice forward energetic walk and Flash really would have rather just strolled along at a leisurely pace.  He had to work to keep up. Hopefully he won't take too long to figure out how to move with a more consistent and efficient pace. The dragging and speeding up routine he did today got a little old.
