2 days after pickup from BLM 6/15/09

The pretty Bay gelding has been here for two full days now. He is adjusting well. At first he ran from me. I worked with him 5 times yesterday. Each time he got better but still wanted to turn tail and run. Today however, was different. He is facing me when I go into his pen. I can pick up his lead rope and he doesn't run. He is trotting circles around me both ways by his choice. He is really curious about me and wants to touch my hand with his muzzle. When he touches me he snorts at me. Not sure if he doesn't like me or just unsure. After I handled him 3 times today he finally quit snorting at me. He is curious but very leery. He is leading a few steps, a really good thing for today.
