No Funday Monday

Today was a work day and with the Reinhards gone instead of vaulting Karin came to help move manure, lots and lots of manure!

5 full hours of scooping and dumping then hauling and spreading.
Karin ran the skid steer while Emily ran the tractor pulling the manure spreader. They finally quit when the tractor ran out of gas around 2:00pm. We were all more than ready for lunch by then.
After lunch Rhoda arrived to work on the show bill with Emily and give Indy and Ayanna one more practice on the games. I had to run down to work to pay the first of the month bills and by the time I got back there were 3 horses missing and no riders to be found. I took the golf cart over to Diane's thinking they may be taking the mares swimming but Diane was there along cleaning up her golf cart.

Mike told her to clean up all the battery connections. She is probably hoping this will make her's faster than mine. Driving back up to the barn Kenna's calf was running around bucking. A picture just had to be snapped of that except by the time I got close enough she stopped and looked over as if to say, "what are you looking at!"

Mytross' colt was taking a nap in the paddock, when he heard me coming he jumped up and stretched.

He thinks he's all that! The trail riders arrived and each one walked over to the pedestal and asked their mare to climb up.  Karin on Jenis went first.

Then Indy and Emily followed by Rhoda and Ayanna.

After dinner Mark worked on scraping the middle paddock then moving the cement pile from the broken up drive way over to the pond. The mares had to be locked up. They are now wondering when I'm going to let them out.
Mike and Diane hauled 4 horses to Middle Grove for the upcoming 4th of July holiday. Sally, Jenis, Missy and Cookie are now out there with Lily, Rosalie, Sangria, Ella, Scarlet, Hadassah, Solomon, Jasper, Clair, Cor, Prissy, Lilypony, Holly, Bunni, Mika, Paris, Jewel, Sissy and Star.
