Gone but Not Forgotten

I went in to work today to pay the first of the month bills a day early stopping first at TEMCO to get the Berean mail. The mail wasn't too bad today, it took less than 3 hours to go through. When I arrived home the truck and trailer were missing. Rhoda and Emily took it to Middle Grove to pick up Anna, Emma and Jenis. Anna will be used for the fund raiser at the Giant Goose Ranch while Emma and Jenis need to have pregnancy checks.
Marika and her one day old filly were taken outside for a few pictures.

She is a typical Evan filly full of life and lots of hair. She had fun running circles around her mom.
Rhoda and Emily arrived from Middle Grove with 3 horses. They didn't plan this trip very well, they forgot to take halters. Luckily they found 3 lead ropes in the truck. They just looped them around their necks and led them around that way. Rhoda had a friend coming to ride so Jenis and Anna were taken into the barn to tack up while Emily put Emma in the middle paddock.

 Below Bonnie and Anna didn't want to step in the puddle so of course their riders make them walk into the puddle and stand there while they visit.

 The ride was fun but very hot, we hit 91 degrees this afternoon with very humid air.

Next Emily worked Hadassah for about an hour. She is doing so well under saddle and has really filled out since last winter. Below she was working at a trot with a loose rein.

 Emily took off her bridle then lifted each hoof without Hadassah moving at all.

 It was so hot the cold water felt refreshing after the work out. Hadassah will be covered tomorrow morning if she is still showing then.

 She learned to drink out of the hose.

Toni, the lady buying the 2003 Keifer built showed up to hook her truck up to the trailer. We needed to try out all the lights first so the trailer was hauled into the indoor arena and plugged in. The 12 volt lights didn't work but Spark came over and discovered it was her truck not the trailer plug that was the problem. So that trailer is now gone but not forgotten. We sure had a lot of memories with it.
We are getting quite a storm tonight. Emily brought Lola in for the night just in case she decides to deliver early. I'm so thankful for the dry stall barn.
