Cloudy Saturday











Rachel and I braved the rainy forecast to go check on Wishes and Colbert. Fortunately, we didn't get hit with any showers while there. The cloudy weather really put Wishes in a strange mood, and she spent most of the morning acting like a nervous wreck, sniffing the air and freezing in place, then snorting loudly and stomping the ground. I did a lot of groundwork with her, though, and felt like we got a lot accomplished. Her filthy tail was driving me nuts, so I soaked it in soapy water and put conditioner in it. It looked much prettier after the wash, but she hated the cold water. Rachel rode Colbert around the ranch, and we took pictures of the new little foal "Battle Born", and his mom, "Nevada." The pics I am posting are of Wishes dumping her vitamins on the ground (she just picked up the food pan with her teeth and dumped it). Wishes after her wash. Battle Born, looking adorable. And Rachel, looking beautiful.

Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs.

I can't believe how much Wishes has grown! She's still as stunningly good looking as the first day we met her ... she's just so much taller now! Give her a hug from Bill & I :)
