[drivingpairs] Thanks Hardy, Helen and Noel!

I really appreciate your advise.  These are two very good boys in a new 
situation and I did not have the strength to stop them and they weren't 
listening.  I was trying to take a walk and they thought they would just run 
hazards!  And it was their third time as a pair on a glorious day.

Foxy and Herb adore them and have a good handle on what to do.  So I'll just go 
up on weekends and learn from their experience!  Although I think it would help 
if they were both reliable CDE experienced singles before competing as a pair. 
I have had a bad experience with a pony that knew the job (competed as a single 
for years) and one that didn't.  Scared the young one and actually knocked him 
up against hazards.  So I plan to enter the experienced guy Prelim and the not 
at Training in alternating events.  Then maybe they will be OK by fall with a 
lot of summer road work together.       

Slow and steady is my motto.  But, as a tandem they were awesome.  Brave 
experience in front and younger brother behind.  Looked prettier too since 
there is a good 2 inch difference in height and the smaller is more refined.  
Otherwise a pefect match.

Oh well- keep on coaching me!
