I guided Cowboy back into the barn and tied him up so he couldn't get away while i was brushing him.I ran the stirrups up, untied the girth on both sides, took the saddle off, and grabbed the pad afterwards.Then i took a nice soft brush and brushed his sweaty fur. He breathed hard.I could feel his warm breathe on my arm. I was finally done after all that so i untied him and brought him into his stable and slid it shut once he was in there nice and secure. Then i walked back over to the tack room and took my helmet,chaps,and boots off. OKAY NOW I WILL WAIT FOR MY MOM TO GET HERE. I thought as i walked out of the T.R. "Rowin! You did great," i heard my mom's voice say from the other end of the room. I looked over and it WAS her. "Mom?" i questioned.
"Umm yes that would be me. Whats wrong?" She asked. " I didn't see you while i was riding,"I replied. "Honey i wouldn't be surprised. After all you have been pretty worried cause you knew you were going to have to do cantering today. Plus i came in while you were trotting, and like real riders you always stay concentrated on the path. That's why you didn't see me. You were concentrating," She explained. I nodded. 'C'mon lets go home now. You seem tired," My mom took my hand and we started for the car.
When we reached it i opened the passenger seat and sat down panting from the heat. Mom got in shortly after me and started the car. We pulled out of the gravel driveway and drove towards home.
