Little bit of a busy day

 This morning started out in a whirlwind.  Due to the loss of the front two pastures at the Warner farm thanks to a drunk driver the horses had to take a few weeks over at the Francis farm while we spread the sheep out to get the babies weaned and off to market.  So Heidi's first time ponying another horse, and first time under full tack since August 2021. Stormy's first time being ponied.  We didn't die, the first third of the ride was a bit of a struggle but the girls settled into what we were doing.  Untacked and turned them loose!  So for 2.5 weeks they will stay out in Nelson's pasture while the lambs wean and get off to Market. 

They had a little jaunt around while I was filling the water tub.  So hopefully they will be good and settle in for a few weeks.  They were at the end of their bag of feed and good thing.  Heidi's girth didn't fit- it took FOREVER to get it on.  I need a new one anyway but I will get the next size up since longer girth will be easier than fitter horse.  

Anyway after Aunt Lisa came and picked me and my tack all up, we moved the rams and llama's over to the pond pasture then set up and moved the ewes all over into the catch pen.  Then came worming and sorting.  All the wethers and what few ewes that were getting culled were released into that pasture, then the keepers were walked back across the driveway.  
As I joked afterwards, only casualty I noticed was my boot finally gave up.  

I wondered why it quite squeaking . . . Oh well.  I have been meaning to replace my old wolverine boots for a while.  Now question will be do I get another pair of Wolverine or do I get another pair of Ariat boots?  I did like my old Ariats that I had.
