Lady
Lady is in standing heat and was covered tonight. Lily and Salena were thrilled to get out into the field this afternoon. We kept them locked into the paddock all night and most of the day because of the heavy rain. Sangria and Big Sally were let out at the same time. Big Sally did not feel comfortable in the field with the other mares and came running back to the gate and asked to be put into the paddock. Silly mare, she could have been grazing. Sangria had to have a good long roll. It is so funny seeing that huge belly from the underside. She can still roll all the way over. We had a lady come see Salena and her colt. She was a ponyclubber that leased a horse from Bridlewood from way back. She is now a mom of 2 young children. She wants her kids to grow up with horses and I can't imagine a better wish to have. I have another person coming to see Salena on Saturday and another person called and asked about her so she will probably sell. I haven't heard from Emily Ricketts about when she wants Anni and Knight. Hope her dad is doing ok. Steven Marchal came out to help Karin with the vaulting and while he was waiting he watered the arena for me. Rhoda showed up to ride Ylse and Jenis. She is training them for the Northern IL Horse Fair held the end of August. Karin was pretty bummed out that the girth she ordered for the new surcingle is too small. She will have to send it back and try for a larger size. I made it home by 5:00pm to start dinner.
