Meet Astro

One of my New Year adventures this year is to take riding lessons.

Today I took a step closer to beginning that adventure.

Nine year old R.N.—a friend, neighbor and the daughter of a colleague of the Legal Dude—will also be taking lessons.

So this afternoon R.N.—together with her mom and younger brother (the little tyke)—and I drove out to meet Astro and his mom.

The barn where we’ll take lessons is not heated and with the severe temps, Astro’s mom decided it was too cold to ride.

But we got to touch and pet Astro and to feed him lots of treats.

First lesson is scheduled for Monday, weather permitting.

We decided on “English.”

Wanna bet who’s going become the better rider faster?

My money is on nine-year old R.N.!
