I always wondered what he would do if I was to slid off again. He stepped over away and then he spoke some horse talk and then he came back to me and stood. I was hurt on the ground but I got up. We walked around together and I was trying to see if I was ok. I felt better but that bone in my butt, felt that feeling. I was worried I was hurt but walked fine. I took Duke by the halter reins, and walked around the arena and I brought him back to the spot where he was jumpy. Sure enough on the ground were 2 bees nests at the bottom of the gate that goes between the two paddocks. He was uncomfortable going over to the spot. I knew something was weird. Then I looked and there the nests were. I took Duke to the field and let him graze on the grass while I was trying to see if I felt any better. I'm sore but its ok. I think that next time I should grab on to Duke's mane.
Today was the easiest time getting on him. I put the stairs in the ring and then gave him a s nack and he waited so patiently while I was struggling to get on and for the first itme in a long time, he stood still while I was teetering on his back. He was a super good boy considering what was going on.
When I got there here was the girl who helps waiting for a friend. It was about 430 and the horses were all put up eating. Duke was happy to see me. He was covered with mud. So cute. I cleaned him up and gave him a cleanin.
