Thanks.... The thread doesn't have a lot of momentum yet, huh! -- a lot of our posters are off riding, and one is away for a wedding this weekend.

Myself, I don't have a lot of news yet.... still drinking coffee.

The FR Saddle Club needs a picture of two mules grazing about a "Bush-Cheney" banner. I'd do it, but I am a bit far from two mules that I know.

I do know one old mule I may see today, but he's retired and he doesn't travel much anymore.

I wonder if he could be persuaded, with a carrot of course, to pose beside a cardboard "Bush/Cheney" sign?

Unfortunately, I am not going to be seeing "Hoagie" the mule today after all. Soon, though. He has such a great face, I want to photograph him.

Pictures from the freshly brush-hawgged back 'forty'....

This is the area we seeded today with a pasture and clover mix. It still looks a little rough, but it ain't a lawn, and we can pick up sticks till the cows come home. Next spring, we can get it better ~and~ not be working in the mud.

I left ecurbh holding the bag.

Pony watching from the under the apple tree, which, ironically, is still there.

We like this spidery tree. It's Hazelnut, but I keep insisting on calling it Nutmeg.

Horses got put back out in the front now while the seed grows.

This is the brush pile to be burned.

He has such a great face.

Mules are charming (?), aren't they?! I have rode a few, but mostly packed them and led them into cow camps in the mountains. One of the ranchers jacks was named "Jake the Snake". He would not be led. He was let to find his own trail in his own time. One might catch a glimpse of him on the trail, but he generally kept out of sight until camp. He was always there waiting. He never failed to show up, he never lost his load. If only his human metaphors were as honest and reliable as Jake. Jake would've voted for Bush.

They are great. My friend's mule was a great riding mule for him and a great companion.

I spent 9 days in the Arizona mountains on a mule.

I wish I had a picture of the pack string.... He let them all follow loose also, their mother was his lead horse and they weren't going far.
