Gaining Trust

The last two days have been fairly successful.  Last night I was able to lunge the mustang filly each direction and get her toughed pretty much everywhere.  I worked myself close enough to her that I was able to hop up onto her wither area, and work my way to the point where I could lay on her back and eventually slide off her hind end and I accomplished this on each side.  Also, I gave her bit pressure until she yielded her hind quarters and also began to give to the bit and flex a bit.  I was pleased with the progress that we made.
