Training for the WEG

My new rider, Kelly McGinn, is cutting into my R and R time.  Now, we all know my favorite things are girls, eating and sleeping.  Well, my alarm clock is now set for 6:30 A.M. and I am expected to roll out bright-eyed and bushy-tailed!  I have to admit it is nice to be ridden before the bugs are awake.  Kelly is a good rider and I like her a lot.  She is riding me in the Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 Alltech Games and she is serious about our training.  Although, one day I made her really laugh! After a tough workout, I was sweaty and itchy.  We were in the barn alleyway and she hadn't bothered to cross-tie me.  She removed my bridle and I moseyed over to the wash stall with my saddle still on to start my shower without her.  The look on her face was priceless!
