"Have you ever seen a bare back rider, without reins, arms flung out to their side, take a horse over a high jump? Folks do that you know? There's a form you should have with your body position when you do this: back straight, head up, knees bent,  arms out making like air plane wings, as the horse jumps. Not just "Look Ma, no hands" but no reins, no saddle, no nothing.

Doffy did that. I seen the picture.

The horse in the back yard is Doffy's horse, named Lady. A 20 year old and very tolerant of city girls who don't know for horses. I've always wanted to groom a horse. Each time I've seen it in movies it looked so relaxing, both for the groomer and for the horse. So Doffy and I are going to go out today and groom Lady. Doffy is going to trim some hair somewhere, don't ask me, I don't know for horses. I want to use that big brush and curry comb the hair that Lady is shedding. Make her look nice and then take a picture of me with my cowgirl hat and boots next to a real horse."

I'm reassuring the horse and myself that I mean no harm and please don't get weird with me, ok?  1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
