90 Round Bales
Last night after leaving the hospital we stopped in at Riverplex and stayed long enough to watch Team 2 Meister win the first game then headed to Logan's Steak House for dinner. Team 1 Meister is all girls where as Team 2 is mixed. Players on Team 1 are Kari Bates, Karin Meister, Rachel Sauder, Jessica Sauder, Anni Davidovics and Rhoda Sceggel. Team 2 players are David Sceggel, Rhoda Sceggel, Caleb Sauder, Brian Schwind, Abigail Meister and Joseph Kummer. Logan's was crowded, in fact every resturant around that area had full parking lots. Weird to see so many people eating out on a Tuesday night with a recession going on. Below are a few pictures once we were finished with our delicious meals.

This morning, even before the day was light enough to see much Mark started moving round bales. The boys needed a new bale as did the mare paddock and the middle paddock. Ciera and Bonnie were moved into the middle paddock. Mike started working on the downed fence in the back pasture. There are 90 round bales left in the barn, all good quality.
On the walk we discussed weaning and decided the third week of November works. Oksana, Olympia and Onyx will be moved into Raven's paddock while the mares will be hauled out to Middle Grove. If Jenis and Eliza are far enough off the property they can't hear the foals calling and the foals can't hear the mares weaning will go quick. The foals are now eating grain out of their mom's buckets, that is Oksana is, Jenis won't share, so they shouldn't lose any weight.
And now for something to tickle your funnybone. This has nothing to do with horses but SO FUNNY! Want a laugh just watch the video below:
