We were just giving them a hard time. He won her back again a few minutes later and they ran the victory lap and had a great time.

We went out there to watch them because she was squealing and making such a fuss. She hasn't had heat cycles that were this strong this year.... maybe she feels summer has got away from her and she'd better get on it. ;~D

We got a new addition, to our barn today. My daughter bought a yearling Quarter filly. We attended a horse sale, and could not pass up a $400 purchase. This is a pretty nice sale, that is held about 3 times a year. It was a buyers market, as prices were low. Especially for the younger ones. A couple of really nice geldings went a lot higher. One nice gray for $4600, and a 16 hand, 1350# red roan, no saled for $5600.

The filly is a solid bay. Her dam was there too, but we missed out on her. We had to go back home, to get the trailer. I will post some pictures of her, when I get them taken. This one dealer, hauls in a truck load of horses from out West to this sale. This filly came from Kansas. Think we should name her Dorothy?

I thought about you too, and how nice, some of these horses, would have been for your husband. We had to do some stall juggling, when we got home. The one-eyed pony will be going back to my ex's, and the Quarter gelding, my daughter leased will be leaving also.

I am so involved with my trap shooting,and going to tournaments, that I just don't have the time for one, for myself. I lost my Appaloosa gelding, having him for 17 years, two summers ago. As long as there are, a couple in the barn to mess around with, I am happy.

Have you though about fostering right now? Here, I'm told you are only resp for feed costs and can adopt if you want.

Not really. When I have my own place and extra room, I want to do a little good work through rescue, but right now, we have to make room and really need a good, stable safe and sound riding horse for ecurbh. We already have a pony we love and can't use, and in not ~too~ many years, we will also have a retired Bay and a new horse for myself.

"Well Cav, I just got in from hauling and stacking at least 200 bales of hay and I'm maybe half done."

Good morning! It is daylight and time to haul the rest of the hay into the barn. To haul hay and stack it you need a hay making drink, "Switchel." There are recipes in the post linked below.

Old-time drink switchel recalls early days spent cutting hay on the farm

Good Morning.

It is a beautiful morning here. We are going to go have breakfast in town shortly. I might try to ride a horse later this afternoon.

Cindy, how was your ride yesterday? I had a great ride on Rusty. I went to the one trail that is smooth and hardly any rocks but has some interesting curves, about 1/2 mile long, and gave him his head:) We had a glorious run thru the woods. What a rush:).

Hair: good picture of Bay.

Looking forward to pictures of the filly. Bay's are about my favorite color:) They can really shine.
