Little bit of Water

















One side of the creek, I wasn't hanging out much to get better pictures, but just a little bit of water-where'd the banks go?


















Yes, a little wet to open and shut the gate, exactly what rubber boots are for! lol.

Tried to get Josie pawing the water, but she waited until I put the camera away. Arizona was pawing at it afterward too, she kept watching the little foamy bits float past her a few times, I was hiding under the big horses run-in while they ate.




Louie wanted that horse food.








Mini waterfall? That's what I heard when I got out of the truck, you couldn't see one of the posts, little bent over. I walked to the edge, put my arm over the fence and took the picture. I was thinking for a few minutes to wade into the water and try to clear some of the fence out but I'd need chest waders.
I do have other pictures, Try to post those one's later or tomorrow, but they are from Donaldson and Rt 713.

Long Time Nothing

The snow had finally gotten melted off, I brought the x-pens over so I could block the doors open to the shed so the buns could get fresh air. I set up one of the x-pens so I could toss Blaze outside to try and clean his cage out. I gave up today and took his cage completely out so that hopefully next Sunday is warm enough to get his cage down to a car wash and use the pressure of the hose there to get his cage good and clean.
One of Mr. Reese's cows came to see what the little white Fluffball was.




































Heidi in the Snow. I had to get pictures of the big furry children of ours out in the snow.

















Heidi's picture came out the best. Naturally of coarse Jazz had to turn around and not look at me.
































Phoenix had to get his heavy blanket on. He has thick fur, but apparently old age has a few things to say about how warm he can stay. He does have new belly straps for the blanket now, but of coarse it warmed up and he rolled in the mud with it, so it's straps, both his blankets, and Jazz's blankets are on the cap of the truck, because it was raining today to try and wash some of the mud off them. Jazz got cold but she'll have to deal with it for today because her blanket was wet on the truck cap. Eventually I'll have to find her a rain sheet so she doesn't get cold. Silly Arabian blood, can't keep warm.

I will try to update a bit more often as the weather gets better. I'm hoping to get a nice day off without too terribly much rain so I can get Bo and Jazz both out and worked with- Jazz needs bending and lunging and Bo more manners.

Changing over and Upgrading!

Before and After Photo's: Did the Driver's liscense on December 29th:































*thanks to Uncle Jim for editting the photo. I didn't even think about that . . . Blonde day?

Plates on the 30th:















The after photo was taken after dad(basically, I helped a tiny bit but I froze) got the Hitch put in on my truck:



















Dad under the truck. I helped him get it into place and from there, with only one socket, he finished up on his own. I had to go let Jazz loose anyway. She wanted so badly to come inside the gate, I tied her while she ate and she had to wait there until I was good and ready to let her go down to get hay that Pheonix and Heidi were already eating. She'll learn patience one way or another.
