My Bad…

I made the mistake of telling Maverick that his best friends were coming this weekend. Well, he understood MOST of that sentence, but he thought I meant RIGHT NOW! So here he is, on full alert, waiting for Sam and Alex (who really don’t arrive until tomorrow).  Sad puppy.anxiousmav

Lost Rebok

{For the answer to yesterday’s trivia question, please see the comments on yesterday’s post.}

Sometimes the horses toss a shoe and we horse owners have to trudge through the field looking for it. It’s not quite a needle in a haystack, but it’s still gratifying when you find what you’re looking for. The farrier will reset that when he comes (although this shoe didn’t take long to rust so I’m sure we’re gonna make a new one instead.)

Stilt walking

I was turning Patty out the other morning and when I saw our shadows, it looked like we were walking on stilts. I just thought it looked funny so I took a pic. What a circus act!circus

First cutting

We’ve been watching the next door neighbor’s field grow all winter and it’s finally time to harvest. Can’t get close enough to tell if it’s hay or straw but I think it’s straw. Good! Now I don’t have to be jealous and neither do the horses!straw
