AKA, "photo dump".
My knees are much better, guys. I was a lazy-ass and I haven't had a leg workout in nearly two weeks. I hobbled around a lot and the pain varied from excruciating to a mild throb. Once walking felt okay, I decided Archie and I were ready for a "real" workout. After all the rain.

Step one: load up on cookies and walk to pasture. Try not to be accosted by the other geldings who know you have cookies (but also know that you won't share).
Step two: gawk at your handsome ponykins until he acknowledges you. Continue to fend off other geldings, especially the baby.
Step three: try not to let your cold little heart burst once the ponykins acknowledges you.
Step four - whatever: groom, mount, forget to take photos.
Step, uh, seven: convince your brave ponykins that water puddles can actually be a total blast.
Step eight: dismount, hook a rein, and try to take decent photos of your still-tacked ponykins.

| "What is this madness?" |
 |
| "I'm trapped." |
 |
| "I'm resigned to my imminent demise." |
 |
| "I don't believe you. I'm still trapped. I can feel it." |
 |
| "Mooooommmmm." |
 |
| "Okay, maybe you aren't full of shit about this capture thing." |
Step eleven: untack, clean, and reward with beet pulp.
 |
| "I love you again." |

| Worried eye. |
