Sunday 'Round the farm (We skipped last week's post, being away visiting my family.) [View all]
Our daughter "farm-sat" with her Boxer Pepper. She sent us this photo, including Shadow, wondering where she was going to sleep that night. They worked it out.

Before we left this is as far as the new barn had gotten, due to multiple delays.

Here is the progress to date.

Shadow, inspecting the latest work.

Shadow was so glad to see us upon returning, she aimed her backside for overdue scritches.

Laurie's Paint gelding Pete is home now, getting reacquainted with his half-sister Maddie.

Pete had once given our good friend an unforgettable ride around the arena, Laurie leading.

Then, this past summer, Pete boarded with our good friends and taught their 7-year-old boy how to ride, with Laurie's assistance.

Back to the present, the neighbor girls like to visit the horses.

KC, reporting in, curled up in our closet.

When we moved here there were a lot of downed logs on the property. Yesterday Laurie made arrangements to give some of them away. With the help of her tractor Big Blue.

Laurie later said that the recipient tried to tell her how to do her job. She tolerated him.


Thanks for stopping by!
