or most, when you think of Dallas, Texas you think of football and the Cowboys, the Cowboy's cheerleaders <weg>, Texas motor speedway, Good steaks, etc... for those of us in ponyplay it's room to ride, seeing old friends and making new friends, Sir Standing Bear & Goddess Chaos, etc... and now it includes new friends from the web who were there such as Pleasure Pony, Creations out of Chaos, Shadow Players, & The House of Gord. Especially since the weekend of July 6, 2001 when a group of pony play enthusiasts with a large variation of interests all met just south of the city for a pony party/event that was filmed for HBO and their Real Sex program.

Here is my journal of my trip...

Setting Things Up:

After being asked by Deb Wasser, the producer, and getting all the travel and dates worked out. She has asked me about several ladies to ride me for the show and WOW, I was so excited when she told me Mistress Brianna had decided to go. Deb had asked me about riders and people that make me excited in this area of play and there were several that came to mind (Brianna was at the top of the list I might add). Most would not agree to be on such a mainstream show for various reasons and others had schedule problems that could not be worked out.

One thing to keep in mind, Mistress Brianna is a very classy and beautiful Professional Dominant in the Washington, DC area. She has a wide variety of interests both personal and professional. In her professional areas she will only do things that she can do complete and correct. This is one of the things that really attracted me to her as a person and as a Dominant Female. Please Note: She has ridden me as her horse, she and I have photos that will be found on my web site with her riding me as her horse. These are all done on a personal level. At this time, she can not & does not offer "Pony Play" on a Professional level simply because she can not do it correctly in her current locale. Please be considerate and do not send her email requesting these types of sessions or meetings. If/When this changes, believe me, I WILL post it on my web site!!!

Practice:

Brianna and I, after several years of trying to work out some riding, finally had a chance to experience horse at rider at Leather Retreat in June, 2001. Bonnie, who was my owner for LR, had given me to Brianna for an hour or so to ride. Her mounting was a little shaky, but her riding ability and control was fantastic. When I found out that they had lined up Brianna for my rider on this trip I was in heaven. I called her and we decided to have a few practice sessions for comfort and safety. We met a few times over the 10 days before the trip for some practice in mounting, riding and balance, and just getting used to the whole idea and feel.

During the practice times, Brianna found the secrets to the perfect balance for both of us, the perfect mount (from the ground), and confidence in having her own property to keep up and deal with. She rode me through a park the last day we had a practice ride for about 30 minutes. Since she can not take ownership of a horse (at least at this time) or doesn't currently have that desire, I know I won't be wearing her brand of ownership. But I have a feeling she may take the option for a brand of admiration. She also currently has spent more time riding me than any other rider I have had.

The Arrival:

Although BWI airport is closer to me, I had been booked out of Dulles and much to my surprise was on the same flights with Brianna and Alan. We met up at the airport and except for a few LOUD kids (don't they have adult only flights?), the flight was smooth. We arrived at DFW and was supposed to meet someone to follow to the ranch. There was a lot of confusion going on so I just got directions and off we went. Fitting (although maybe not the best word) that our rental car was a "Mustang" (back seats are not for passenger use!) we took off for the drive down south to the ranch and hotel. We checked in, started seeing old friends and meeting new friends. Before we knew it, we were all trying to decide on dinner.

Sir John, having been here on business before, saw a great steakhouse that he had been to and we all decided to go there. I think we missed the 3 or 4 that were closest to us and ended up at the one on the other side of the airport. By now it was 10:30 at night (Texas time) and the restaurant was in the "getting ready to close" mode. But, our server Rich and the staff at the Texas Land & Cattle Steakhouse all were excellent! They graciously seated the 10 of us. Now, let me see if I can remember who all was there... me, Brianna & Alan, Dana & Piper, Sir John & Ponygirl Mystique, Luscious, Vendela, and Buck. After we ordered, we took a few "vanilla" group photos in front of a horse and cow roundup Muriel, then in front of the fireplace where branding irons were just hanging around.

Brianna was already taking control of her property and had me kneel in front of her for each photo. After we did the last photo and sat back down at the table, Brianna made sure to tell me she has a design for her branding iron and someone to make it already lined up. I for one understood what that meant, now I just have no idea when her brand of admiration will find it's way to my ass! <LOL>.

The meal was perfect, the service was great. The waiter even did separate checks and got EVERYTHING right on who was with who, etc... The group all decided to send a letter to the company praising his great service! We all finally make it back to the hotel, although I think all 3 cars went different routes. It was after 1:00 AM when we made it back and eating that late didn't help in the sleep routine.

The First Day:

We all arrived at the ranch around 10:30 A.M. on Saturday and did a little looking around and socializing, trying to find out exactly what was going on. We had been given a schedule of some pony events but no real explanation as to what was needed, etc.. The crew was set up in the barn area and the ponies were told to find the stall with their name on it. I looked around but never did find my name so I just wandered around for a bit. While they were shooting at the barn, Goddess Chaos announced that there would be some barrel racing competitions going on so Brianna put me in my tack for some riding fun.

This was our first time to do any type of competitions, and although I had been around barrel racing as a spectator, she had no idea of exactly what the pattern was. After it was explained to her, she was ready. They had enough ponies of variety there to have the competition separated by types such as 2 legged shoulder riding, cart pulling, & just leading or driving the pony on foot.

Brianna had on a pair of cutoff shorts, some new chaps, her boots and a very nice leather top. She wasn't sure how easily she would be able to mount me in the chaps but one thing I have learned (and admire) about Brianna, when she sets her mind to something consider it done. Brianna mounted me from the ground and in one quick motion she was sitting on me. She mounted as the rules and pattern info was announced. We had no idea of when we would be called upon so she sat on her mount patiently waiting. After about 10 or 15 minutes we were up and she rode me to the starting place. In no time I felt her kick and away we went around all the barrels with a sprint as she kicked me on for the final leg of the race. She then rode me back up to the holding area and dismounted. We won first place in the barrel race for 2 legged riding.

The next few hours we spent trying to do photos in various outfits but it seemed every time Brianna changed, the producers would come and get her for a scene (she was the most beautiful woman there!).

Later they were having a parade of the ponies, Brianna had already changed into several outfits and the current one was a very tight cat suite type outfit. Because of the heat, it would not move on her skin so mounting was a little more cautious. But with very little hesitation, she again was sitting on her horse. She rode me up to the top of the hill where the parade area was. We were told the parade would go down to the gate, then we would stop where they would need to change film in the camera, then we would continue for the final part of the shooting. After about 15-20 minutes, the parade started and I felt the kick and the start command from my rider. The ride for this parade segment was only about 3 or 4 minutes to the gate and the stopping place.

As Brianna pulled on the reins to stop someone asked her if she needed a cool mist spray and some water, she did. They asked about spraying me and she said "no, he's fine". Someone asked if she needed to get down until we started again and again she said "no, I'm fine sitting on my horse" (or something close to that.. my pony space hears key words but doesn't always retain the exact phrases). It was probably another 15 minutes before we did the final segment of the parade. I had later asked some people how long the parade segment lasted and they all answered 45 minutes to an hour. Although it's nice to know how long one can endure and perform as a horse for his rider, I don't strive to break records. It was impressive to me that my rider and owner considered me AS her horse and did not give in to thoughts of humanization or concern that as a human I might be tiring. Instead, she thought of and treated me AS her horse and sat there relaxing and waiting just as she would have on any other horse (she really has my heart!).

There was another riding duration sometime during the day as Brianna was wearing a full corset type skirt (from breast to below the butt) and they came insisting she ride in it (she could not even sit in it).. but she loosened up a few things and was able to be placed on her horse for a short ride.

When it was over, Alan came up with a few beers. I didn't have to say a word before I heard "go ahead trigger, you have earned it!" The rest of the afternoon and evening we spent socializing and unwinding by the pool. It was dark when we went back to the hotel and there again, we all went to the pool area to sip on cool drinks. We had met some of Vendela's old friends and they joined us. Brianna needed a foot massage and I must admit that although I don't have a foot fetish, seeing her pleasure was worth the several hours I spent giving her feet loving and attention. When she decided to turn in, Vendela's friend Deb asked if I would rub her feet some and how can you say no to such beautiful (and Dominant) females!

The Next Day:

We arrived at the Farm before 9:00 AM and the first thing they wanted to shoot was another parade. I was tacked up and ridden by my beautiful owner down the parade route twice as they did the filming. This was a different area and did not take as long. Mid day they decided to have the jumping competition and another barrel race. Brianna had already changed into her tight jeans (she really should be the model for a jeans maker-WOW!). She had not done any riding where we did jumps, in fact before the barrel race on Saturday, she had not ridden me at a trot. She wanted to practice one to see if she felt ok and mounted her horse. We did a few practice jumps and she was so in control.

She rode me back up to the judging area where again she just sat on her horse waiting. Goddess Chaos announced us and mentioned this was my first time to do jumps. I am not sure where she got this information unless she was talking about as a team (Brianna and me). I've done jumps in the past and as you can see from the animated .gif, have been ridden off the back of a truck. Anyway, we did 3 jumps in a row down, then 3 jumps up hill coming back. Brianna later mentioned she lost her balance on one of them, but I never felt anything but perfection (as on ALL the Brianna's rides).

We did not compete again in the barrel race and decided to just cool down by the pool again. It was now getting late in the afternoon and I had promised a few other ladies some rides. Sadie, one of the beautiful girls from ShadowPlayers.com had a quick lesson then mounted me for some riding. She really made me feel good when she mentioned she enjoyed riding me more than the real horses she had ridden a few hours earlier.

Mistress Malice rode me next, her balance was really good and I think she would have wanted to ride all day. We spoke of a possible visit in the future. I was hoping to have a chance for Goddess Chaos to ride, but with her hosting there wasn't time then. After spending a little time at the pool and chatting with friends, I left for the hotel with Brianna and took all of our luggage with us. I took a shower, changed clothes and went back to the ranch to pick up Alan. Brianna had give me strict orders to have him back there at 8:00 P.M. so we could go have a really nice dinner.

When I got back to the ranch, Goddess Chaos was ready for her ride. My timing really sucked on that one, I had taken all the tack back to the hotel and there wasn't time now to go back and get it, ride, and do all the other things already planned for the evening. So, Goddess Chaos now has an option for a weekend, week, or month (her call) of ownership at some other time in the near future (I'm such a pony slut).

Afterglow:

We finally found a place that wasn't a fast food restaurant to eat. A Tex-Mex type place that was supposed to have both Mexican and traditional American food (but was mostly Mexican). Now, I do love Mexican, but by now some basic meat and potatoes was sounding really good. Brianna and I had a nice (really nice) margarita while we waited on the food. It finally came and was really delicious, but there was so much and we were so tired, none of us ate it all.

Again, we visited around the pool and drank some cool beverages, visiting with Vendela and her friends before finally calling it a night (well, some of us did <LOL>) and getting some rest. The next morning, Brianna, Alan, Lorelei (the blacksmithchic) & I all found our way to the airport. Our timing was close, but without any problems. After our arrival back into DC, getting our bags, I said goodbye to my owner and Alan. I am still having bad withdrawal pains!

Final thoughts:

This may sound like a lot of praise and admiration for Mistress Brianna and it is! She made this trip wonderful for me and I hope she had as much fun as I did. I will long to be Brianna's horse for life now!

I have been so lucky in my pony adventures to have and have had the "cream of the crop" (pardon the pun) when it comes to beautiful dominant ladies riding and using me either as just a rider or a temporary owner. Brianna is not interested in ownership of a horse at this time (but she is on the top of my lists of wishes) but will always have that option. I know I will wear a brand of admiration for several ladies in the future, all who have a special place in my heart. I am proud to say that Mistress Brianna is one of those few special ladies that hold a part of my heart and who's brand of admiration I shall soon proudly wear.


Footnote: Mistress Brianna has ridden me as her horse for personal enjoyment. She does NOT offer pony training as a Professional Dominant. The reason? She is a Professional and can not offer pony training without it being done correctly. She has no space or equipment to offer this at this time. Please be considerate of this decision.
