Surprise

There was a big surprise on our walk today, AMY drove all the way from Tremont, IL to join us. Now if only Beth and Karin had come, just seems we can't get everyone there on the same day. Rebekah took the picture for us. Below Joan was trying to save some baby redwing blackbirds from Ebby but the camera was pulled out a bit too late, Joan was asked if she would bend down and pretend she was saving them just for the camera, yeah right!
After the walk, Amy helped with a few of the chores that should be done before breakfast around here. The mares were teased, the outside Arabian is now coming in but the only mare ready for cover was Airiah. I was very glad Amy was there to help, Amy needed to remind Airiah to stand still for the job. Poor Poppy, Amy's dog, she was sure Raven was doing something wrong, came up behind to let him know, Raven jumps off Airiah and kicked her. Poppy ran under Amy's car until that mean old stallion was put away.
We had a very nice breakfast, Amy brought sweet ripe cantaloupe and Bing cherries to go with our kiwi, sausage, eggs, toast and coffee. It was all just plain delicious.
Emma had to show off her puppy belly, 20 days and counting.

The water softener is now being installed and the instant hot water heater is in the process of adjusting, just maybe we will get to take a hot shower soon. Amy had to drop Poppy off at the vet, Raven caught her in the mouth and fractured her back tooth and it must be extracted.
