Spring planning

Spring has come early here in the Northwest, the dark,damp pall is starting to lift.  Buffy and I have been able to get out and start our training earlier than usual...we want to be ready for more miles this year.  

The question is always, what is the goal, you cannot proceed without a goal can you?  I cannot.  So the goal for this season is multidays.  The ability to do multidays will determine the ability to do 100's in my humble and inexperienced opinion.....

In this part of the country, there really is not flat places to ride, which makes conditioning much more interesting.  Buffy has the most comfortable rocking chair canter of any horse that I have ridden. So we will be doing some of our training at the canter.  It releives some of the back discomfort that I experience while posting her trot (it is me, not her).  

Another hill that we normally fly up, our plan is to trot the ups, and walk the downs..
