Beautiful Evening

Rhoda planned on working Ella and the arena lights were to be turned on for her, this is what the sky looked like as we walked behind the barns. Such beauty to behold, what a gift.


As long as our weather holds, Rhoda has come each day to work the new pony getting her ready for Addyson! The pictures below are terrible, as it was getting dark fast and the flash needed to be used but just look at what this pony is learning.


Mike came over to help get Zalena covered by Raven and Rhoda talked him into climbing on Ella to see if she would throw a fuss. Ella stood great but Rhoda about busted a gut laughing.

Amy Koch came over with Ella's coggins and we had a lovely evening visiting. We miss the visiting that was so convenient when I lived at Bridlewood. Now it takes effort, Amy has to drive all the way to Hanna City or I guess I could drive over to Tremont but we always tease her how that is way to far.
Today Zalena will needed to be covered again, as yesterday is considered a clean out for Raven. He hasn't been used in the last 2 weeks. Steven has offered to handle this. He will just need to be aware that Izadora is terribly jealous and yesterday when Raven was put back in the paddock with her, she whirled and kicked out at him, then threatened him a bit. We will probably take her out to Middle Grove, she just does not tolerate Raven flirting with another mare. We like to give Raven a companion for the winter and she is usually a good fit unless he is busy then we need to bring her inside first so she doesn't see him with another mare.
