New Truck

Diane, Eva Jean, Shirley and I were the workers this morning working efficiently and quickly finishing all the mail by lunch. Spark was able to buy a 2011 Ford F250 Superduty truck with a 6.2 liter engine, cab and a half and a full bed at the auction yesterday. Exactly what our wish list was. Mark picked it up this morning then took it down to B & L to get the goose neck hitch installed. He brought it home after work and we hooked it up to the big trailer, tomorrow I'll be hauling 6 horses to the vet, so that was perfect timing.
Rhoda and Emily decided to train Soul and her colt today. Soul at 9 years old has never been trained to ride and has never had a rider on her back until today.

Not to brag or anything but Horsemeister has the very best trainers in the world! Uh I may be a bit prejudiced. Emily was working with her colt while Rhoda was working with Soul.

Soul doesn't have a good go button yet but she was more than willing to follow Emily. 

Today was a big success. What a cute colt. Mike has decided he is going to buy him for his next riding horse so he was marked sold. It will be fun to watch this boy grow up.

Lee came over tonight to play with Darcy and Emma.

Emily and Mike went to Middle Grove tonight to move the horses from the new land to the old land. This is always a fun job (not). Sometimes the round up goes like clock work and sometimes part of the herd goes the wrong direction. Emily was going to try to ride Lily in the lead while Mike on Mika brings up the rear. I'll be anxious to hear how it went. The grass at the old land is thick and long. They can stay there until the creek freezes up then must be moved back to the winter pasture as that has the only heated automatic waterer.
