The Boys

Mom is missing all the beautiful blooms by leaving Illinois and staying down at Gulf Shores. Usually she plans this trip so she is back before the flowers start blooming but this year every thing is early.
This picture was snapped on our walk when we stopped at Rhonda's to take care of her cats.

Work went well. Lisa Waibel came down to pick up some books with a couple of her boys. They were more than willing to move the 32 pound boxes of Bibles that needed to be stuffed and sent out. All of the letters were processed and 1000 copies made of lesson number 1 and the letter that goes out with each Bible.
After work, Steven showed up at the farm and helped get Zalena covered by Raven. She is still in but should be going out soon. Raven was was getting the job done when Kay Johnson stopped by. She was surprised to see him working. She has a Valiant baby on the way and wanted to check him out. When she wanted to see him move I hopped on the golf cart, invited her to ride with me and drove into the field. Below both boys are waiting very patiently for Steven to let them go.

Once they are turned loose the fun starts.

Evan was at the bottom of the field in the next picture and my camera isn't good enough to take clear pictures from that distance but this picture still had to be posted. It shows his mane blowing in the wind.

And just look at how high Valiant brings his legs up at the trot. This is not trained into him, this is his normal gait.

The rest of the pictures were posted on their webpages. It actually was a good thing we went out to the field, we discovered the boy's automatic waterer is leaking. This one is set far enough back that it isn't visible from the front. Hopefully it wasn't leaking long.
