The Herd Moved

 Mom came on the walk today, We all wore ice tracks on our shoes but we found most of the ice is now melted off the driveways and by the end of tomorrow pretty much all of the snow will also be melted.  When we reached Diane's house Joan looked down and saw a bunch of washers spilled out on the driveway. Mike must have lost them when bringing in a bag of them. Yesterday Joan needed some washers and this bunch had the exact size needed. She dropped right to the ground, picked them all up, kept the few she needed and took the rest in to Diane's house for Mike. 

Mom was able to do almost the entire first round only skipping Joan's house but doing the hill. She is getting in shape for our trip to Gulf Shores.  Today was house cleaning day for me and I like to listen to AC Central while working. I was able to get just the first page of sermons up so listened to one of Bloomington's services. The next message I listened to David's message from June 2018 given at GPHOP. The title of this message was Hidden With Christ. This message really hit home, we ALL want to be great or have recognition and I too am guilty of exactly what he spoke on.

Mike called to report the back gates at Middle Grove were found opened and the herd was in the summer pasture. They were hanging around up by the round pen. The picture below was taken last summer.
They love hanging around by the round pen under those trees.  We have a bunch of round bales stored in the summer pasture down by the lower gates, really big nice green hay bales that we would rather they not trash until needed.  Mike and Diane will be spending the weekend at Middle Grove and can help move them on Saturday.  I'm picking up Addyson, Jack, Jace and Abe early Saturday morning early so I may as well plan on picking up Galena and Rosalie Saturday and move the herd at the same time. Addyson, Jack and Jace can help with that. Abe will get to stay with grandpa. It is supposed to be a beautiful day with sunshine and 57 degrees, not a bad day to move horses.
