Tied To the Tracks

This morning 3 bales were moved in, one for the far paddock, one for the weanling paddock and one for Evan's paddock. The washer in the apartment went on lock down. I tried for over an hour to open the door, even turning off all the power to the apartment for a half an hour but when the power was turned back on the door was still locked. About that time LuEllen arrived to take more pictures of the foals. 
 This is easier said than done. The fillies want to 'help' with the camera.
We got a few of Rosaleigh and her filly and Soul and her colt.

After LuEllen left I went back into the apartment but the washer was still locked. I stopped on the way down to the house to snap the pictures below of the redbud tree. It is almost full bloom and the pink color against the bright blue sky was just beautiful.

By this time it was almost 1:00 pm which was the time I was suppose to pick mom up for the trip to ICC to watch the homeschool co-op play Tied To the Tracks. Faith, Joan's daughter had a pretty big part in this play.
 The play was hilarious drawing lots of laughs from the packed house. 
They put this on twice today with a 2:00 pm performance and a 7:00 pm performance. If you would like to see the rest of the pictures from the play click HERE. When we got home from ICC I had to go straight out to work to move Galena and her filly into the breeding shed. She is now in season and was covered today by Valiant. Lola and her filly were also moved there as these two mares want to be together.  Jewel's udder was checked and it is not full yet, we have some time. Indy, Oksana and Irish broke a board in the short shelter paddock. They were moved into the middle paddock with Jewel. That board will need to be replaced tomorrow.  Evan was turned out into the pasture today. He just had to show off for the girls in the next field over.

Phil was sent a text about the washer so I ran up to the apartment to get the model number but had to open the door to get that and only as I was writing down the number realized the door OPENED!  I didn't need the model number. The towels were taken down to my washer to spin out. About then Dan stopped by to help with the washer and so did Anna.  It's been a long day.
