"Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long"
Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts
I honestly feel like those lyrics are the story of my life. Well that and On the Road Again by Willie Nelson. But needless to say, we are ACTUALLY on our way to Florida! Finally. Like I've waited long enough.
Mystic, to finish off the week at Mike's, was still absolutely bonkers. Until today that is. I think it was because I didn't really have good chances to work her hard at home because of the weather. Today we went schooling at Texas Rose Horse Park on our way out of the state, and she was absolutely amazing! She took everything I asked her to, and when you don't get much instruction you know it's a good thing. I was so happy. She was coming back to me great, and anytime we became Ricky Racer again, she'd chill out and slow down when i asked her. So major improvement to the horse I had this past week.
Everyone is off now. Dad and I helped reload the trailer of tack and horses before we headed out. Mystic loaded right into Heather's trailer again with ease. I was worried about her going in Mike's semi horse trailer, but was happy to see her go in the big goose neck attached fo Heather's semi truck. Now we embark on the 16 hour trip to Altoona, Florida! Mike, Heather, Mystic and the rest of the horses are driving straight through, but dad and I can't decide if we want to or if we are going to crash for a few hours. It all depends on how he feels. He's the one driving, not me. Even if I had my license I wouldn't drive the forty foot fifth wheel. Nope. I'll stick in the passenger seat. No thank you.
I was super worried that, after how Mystic was acting this week, that it would hurt my chances of moving up but was extremely estatic of her performance today. She really did super. I'm really excited to see how everything goes in Florida. It should be good!
Long trip here I come. Can't wait until I'm actually there.
Mystic and I today at the corner!
