Its a glorious day.
Wayne trimmed hooves today cause our farrier is out of action for a while. I held horses. Dancer, who had never had her feet done before we got her, was the best. Wally was like a bucking bronco with his back legs. Ben was just naughty with his front.
After that, neither of us felt like doing much but sitting in the sun and just enjoying. Listening to old 60s British pop bands, including Herman’s Hermits.
For some reason I woke up this morning with “No milk today” on my mind. Love that song.
So here are a few photos of the broncs enjoying the grass.
Ben, below, has started to fill out and put on weight. He’s looking good.
I love Ben’s stripe and the way one of his eyes has a spot of white on the lid and some white eyelashes.
Ben and Wally, best buds.
Dancer, also filling out, outside the woodshed.
Dancer eating around the pom pom bush and the columbines.
A close up of the columbine buds. Obviously the ones in here are purple. I wonder where I put the white ones…
Dancer and Wally. See the difference in colour? Dancer is going lighter and lighter as she loses her old coat.
The family… you can just see Mishca and Barney under the table. They stay out of the way when the horses are in the yard.
Wally, in front of the house.
So now you know why I’ll never have a nice yard. Horses and nice yards don’t go hand in hand. I think I prefer relaxing weekends with horses in the yard to a perfect garden.
LOL Shouldn't you have put them in the yard to EAT the stuff you cut down? I mean, BEFORE you cut it down? LOL
Bet you never expected to have your poodles co-existing with the horses after their initial introduction and maniacal episodes, huh? Nice family scene.

LOL Dancer comes in every afternoon. She just isn't doing her job well enough!
