I ride Hank for the first time

Hayes is on probation with her pony Hank. She hardly spends time with him so this is her last month of threats and warnings and then he goes up for sale if she doesn't tend to him.
We'd gone riding last Monday and upon having both the saddle and bridle necessary, I got on Hank. We spent a couple of hundred dollars getting him tuned up in the winter and that's gone for naught since Hayes hasn't ridden him or worked with him on the ground either.

He made me a little nervous and you can see I'm sitting forward in the saddle trying to overcompensate for my nervousness and his. I was on him maybe 10 minutes and he really didn't want me on him.
