Those were some great pictures! I especially liked the one of the little girl showing that big red horse. It was blurred, but in an artsy kinda way. Really cool!
Those sawed off hooves were horrible! I can’t imagine somebody letting a horse get in that shape. But you can tell by the growth rings that the horse was severely foundered and not just overgrown. I sure hope it gets more regular trims and gets better.
I figured y’all rode today. It was nice (but hot) at work until around 2pm and then the bottom fell out. Who all went and where’d you go?
It was Hal & I, J. Stancil, John C., Shirley, W. Mitchell, Sammy S. and Al (Blackberry guy) on his little Paso. Lanier had his grandkids and couldn't go, but he came and looked at Trouble late afternoon. He liked him.
The vet sold us the powered Sulfa abx. for Trouble. $37. Hope he eats it. He's more interested in grass than feed. We put him on the east pasture so he'd have more. Maybe when all the noses and coughs clear up they can all go together. I need to sell 3 anyway. Really 4 'cause if Trouble stays as good as he is now, Soldier probably won't get ridden much.
I forgot to say my son gave me a puppy for my birthday. I needed one like a hole in the head, but I gave him his female and she had 9 this time. They sold 4 and then 4 of them started attacking the one I got, and she is not the runt. The ones left were all females and the mother bit him when he started kicking them off My Puppy. He had to put her in the house to keep them from killing her. I named her Tallulah Bankhead (papers), and she knows Tallulah, sits, and fetches at 11 weeks old. I've only had her 10 days. Maybe she will be smart enough to leave Hal's chickens alone.
We got 4 tenths of an inch of rain. Maybe we will get more today.
