WOW! Clouds

Monday, October 27 –

I followed the kids out to the barn this morning as they were feeding their new horses. The sunrise was so amazing. I was glad I had my camera with me.

New Horses **Video Added!**

Friday, October 17 –

We thought we would be able to build up our two older horses, Moxley and Radar and let Carolina and Stockton ride them until some of the younger ones were steady enough for young riders. However, they’re just not in good enough shape to be ridden very often. We’ve turned them out on wheat for a while. Meanwhile, the kids needed good broke horses to ride. So, we went to see Bill Tinney.

We’ve purchased lots of horses from Bill and his brother Tommy over the years, both breeders of Galiceno horses.

Lazy Morning

Monday, October 13 –

This morning, the animals were kind of slow to get moving. Mondays are kind of like that for me, too.

I can’t decide which is more comical – the bear-faced hat or the knees sticking out of the pants…
