Duncan is back at home now... what is kind of like home anyway. He trucked smoothly from New York and settled in quickly when he got back here. So far I've ridden him a few times and he's been pretty good. My friend Kelly got on him yesterday and that was really good. She mainly just worked with him on stuff from the walk and trot, but it's still stuff that needed to be worked out. It's all basically the same thing that I'd been doing with Terry before she left. He has always been really stiff backing up and just doesn't seem to want to do it, and now more so than ever. But I think I'm too quick to pull him and don't think about the timing of it enough. It needs to be more deliberate, thought out steps that are slowly increased, as
