@horseandgoatmom that Is some pretty impressive snow and even more impressive shoveling - I tip my hat to you
Everyone in your barnyard looks pretty content, digging thru the snow. I love Sonny’s head buried half way up to his ears
We’re gonna get slammed again — don’t put your shovel away just yet. Toilet paper, bread & milk are flying off the shelves in Middle Tennessee again, lollol
Gosh I hope the turkeys just got separated and she decided to stay with you
. I hate the thought that something may have happened to the other two
I had to have Joker’s therapy shoes pulled for at least this coming five weeks
. My farrier is an RN - her mandatory 12 hour shifts have turned into 15 hour shifts more days than not - she’s been sick but not with Covid- just too pee-new-monia-sick to shoe
. So the shoes are off and I have Joker’s Cloud boots if our ground freezes or he starts favoring the hoof with Low Ring Bone. It was a frog-strangling rain the Sunday the farrier came to trim both horses, which didn’t help her health but I at least have a barn for her to work in. If she can’t get back out here at five weeks, I can at least keep their hooves tidied up.
I ran across this foto. It is from 2006 and I wish I was still that thin when I thought I was fat, lollol. The handsome dude is a three year old Spotted Tennessee Walker that I was riding for someone who was selling him and wanted an assessment of the horse.
My assessment was, even though I love my ”brown hued” horses, I told the guy I could be talked into giving him 3K for this horse. I’ve never in my life paid that much for a horse but the Seller said he was for sure sticking to his price of 6.5K (a lot in 2006) if I liked the horse that much, lollol. At three he was not for a beginner but he had a tremendous heart, willingness to do right, and he was a good thinker. The horse would be coming 19-20 by now, I sure hope he ended up in a good place.
He was tall and I’m still short, lollol
