Hope you will post pictures.

Not with the trail camera, but seen in the front yard this morning. When this guy shows up, there is bound to be unsettled weather. He/she is about 18" across. Did get the painted bunting on the trail camera.

I took Billy to the nursing home yesterday. My sister took her Jackie. A friend took some little nigerian dwarf goats. It was Western Day at the nursing home, so we were part of the theme activities. Billy enjoyed himself. He was into licking--chairs, shoes, blankets, hands. Kind of nerve...

Babies have a lot to learn, don't they? Being clipped/bathed is one of those things. A little at a time usually works. I found that tying is somehow worse. If I hold the halter as I run the clipper and sort of follow the horse for a little way as he backs up, he seems to handle it better. I...

Wow! Out of Stock nearly everywhere. I finally found a size 3 at Big Dee.

I really like Easy Boots, as they are quick and easy to put on. But the velcro fails. This is the second set I've had to buy because the velcro fails. I've heard of people wrapping duct tape, which would work if one were out on a trail and desperate. (In fact, might be a good product to...

A friend's horse developed hives. It was a couple of days after taking Bute. (She had slipped in mud and hurt her leg.) Has anyone had an allergic reaction to bute? Would it be more likely something in her paddock/something she ingested? Of course, the hives showed up on a Friday evening...

I took off the bow and embroidered a tie instead. I think it looks better. Yes, I painted the "sky". I'm working on another one, not cross stitched but embroidered. I enjoy having a hand project I can just pick up or leave when convenient. Busy time of year!

Not part of your book club, but I'm reading Salt of the Sea right now on my library app. It's a book some of your might enjoy. Haven't reached the end yet--I'm a little on tenterhooks about the ending.

I made a counted cross stitch kite button. I'm not pleased with the tail. I need a finer linen to work on so the design is smaller. Hard to find nice linen around here. I might try to embroider one... A little crafting in between husband's work schedule, spring yard work, invalid puppy, and...

Rainy, stormy weather so Billy has not kept to his dry lot regimen very well. I need to take him to the elevator to be weighed so I can see if we are making progress. Trying to walk with him at least 3 times a week. Yesterday we walked with a neighbor who has a little Frosty. She pushed her...

Oooh. I really dislike when someone comes on to ask a question and then never returns to give the update! We can all learn so much from those situations, even if they end badly.

The "Nutty Nursery" used to be a hot place to be! If you go back to early posts, you will find lots of information. But that circle of support isn't the same, I know. I know zero about foaling, but I loved dropping in on that topic sometimes just because it was a horse thing. I know what you...

I always enjoy your posts. You are an experienced horse woman and I pay attention when you post. The "ribbon thing" is a sort of tradition begun several years ago as a motivational. We posted our driving time and Majorclemintine offered to log them. At the end of the year, cayuse offered to...

Oh yeah. 87 one day and high of 65 today. Coat on, coat off!
