Schooling at Ramtap

For our pony club meeting we went to Ramtap, a wonderful facility that offers a chance to ride cross country, stadium, and dressage. Of course I was just there for the cross country. We got a chance to walk around and find all the baby cross country jumps and hop over them, carefully avoiding all the prelim and Training level jumps.
Wow look at his tail! It looks like a broom.
Ramtap seemed to be trying to spice up their selection of jumps and had added this rocket.
After we became bored of the dry jumps we headed over to the pond to get wet. Boeagle jumps into water in the weirdest way. He seems to resemble the horses in those old paintings, before they had cameras and could figure out how horses actually move.  Its quite uncomfortable to ride, and once we start going thorough the water it feels like he's wading through cement. It was only Bo's second or third try and cross country and I'm very happy with him.
