Today was the day I anticipated.  Today was the day I dreaded because  
I wondered, "Could I do it?  Could I get up on Doodles and ride  
without injuring my new knees?"  I groomed him for about an hour; he  
must have thought he was going to a parade!  Doodles was surprised to  
see the mounting block and bridle, but NO saddle.  I rarely ride  
bareback, but I thought it would be easier for me.  Getting on was no  
problem.  And I was riding!  We were a motley crew:  Forest, Oscar  
(the cat), Doodles & me.  I only rode for 10 minutes and it was  
heavenly.  The hard part was getting off:  I wrapped both my arms  
around Doodles' neck and clumsily slid off.  He stood there, steadfast  
and true.  When I came into the house, Billy thought something was  
wrong, because I was crying.  I told him "I did it.  I rode the Doodle  
Bug bareback."

Just wanted to share with my friends on the List.
