Well it's been a week since that ball. Gypsy is getting acquainted here at this barn. Colin's horse Ranger is also doing well. I've been running both horses, since i'm working here I get all the time to ride. I have yet to run into a lot of the boarders but hey, it's Saturday today and I'm going down with Colin. She has people to work during the weekends so i'm just week days.
"You ready to see Ranger" I asked
"Yes. How has he been doing?" Colin asked
"Really good. He listens well" I said
Pulling up to the barn there was a decent amount of people there. And I recognize three of those trucks. Parking next to all of them, we hopped out and walked over to the field. Our horses came waltzing over and Colin handed me a lead rope. We walked our horses to the grooming area and got our tack out. Then we heard people coming out of the barn.
"Hey are you guys the new boarders?" We heard
Turning around it was Ryan, John, and one of the other roping guys.
"Ella?" Ryan said
"Wassup" I replied
"How come you guys board here" He asked
"They just moved to the area, and I got out of my step moms house and live with them now" I said
They nodded and looked at us.
"So, do you ride too?" John asked
"I rope and bull ride" Colin said
He looked at him then me, then nodded.
"We are gonna run some of the steers, if you want to come join" Ryan said
"Yeah. You gonna come or trail ride?" Colin said
"I'll ride the trails. You make friends" I said
"I'll be down in a minute" Colin said
They nodded and we finished tacking up.
"Well i'll be down there. Wish me luck" Colin said
"Have fun. Oh i'm going to post the picture from the ball" I said
He nodded and started down to the arena. I pulled up the pictures and picked two of my favorites. The first one was with the mask and the second was with out. It was just me in the first one and the four of us in the second picture. I made a cheesy caption and posted it. Then I hopped up on Gypsy and rode down past the little arena they were in and into the woods. One of the guys that works here during the week as well showed me the trailers. He's a couple years older then me. Very nice. Sadly taken. About an hour went by and I rode back to the arena and watched from the side.
"You wanna come in?" The one kid asked
"Sure" I replied
They put the steer back in the line up and opened the gate for me. Trotting in, I stood off to the side and Colin handed me his rope.
"You're up Cuzzo" He laughed
"Bro, I haven't roped on the longest time" I laughed
"C'mon, I wanna see you rope. You run barrels pretty good" Ryan said
"Nah, I don't think she's got it" John laughed
"Well, since you put it that way. Let's go" I said
They all clapped and I lined up next to the shoot.
"Alright Gyp, we haven't done this in a while, but lets show up the boys" I said
"You ready?" The no named kid asked
