I got my "Fix"

Fern Valley's Phoenix, that is !!!

My  blue eyed handsome boy is home, and we are HAPPY!!!!

I went to  try him out and bring him home ,and I am very pleased. He is settled, willing soft and responsive, just as he should be.I think I will keep him LOL

First I watched Justin ride him a bit , not as much of what he has been doing  is shown but it was a busy day there getting ready for a futurity. He has been used to  turn back  cattle and also they have been "working him on the flag " (useful for cutting and penning) I would have liked to see that, but I needed to get down there more than I did .Sometimes being busy is good, but sometimes it sucks! Anyhow as you can see , my "Fix" did get over his  fire breathing dragon moment/s that he had when he first got there and has settled into the good horse I knew he  could be.

Then , I got on. Geoff  kindly agreed to take a few pictures of me .Thankfully  after the trainwreck which was me mounting up! Lets just say that although it was not pretty I got there (bad hip, and knee, sore shoulder all conspired to make a mess of it ) And that in itself also showed what a star Phoenix is , ! He stood , feet solidly planted and waited for me to flopscramblewrithe onto his back!

So he is home and settling in nicely,not just sure what the next step is for  "Fix" but he has a lot of ability, and a great foundation so we need to figure out just where  to go from here . Meanwhile I am just going to enjoy having the blue eyed wonder home !
