Saturday Water Fun

Karin came early as I was cleaning a paddock. She and Kayla were going to take Lily, her colt, Jewel and her filly out on the trails before it became too hot.

Anna brought the girls over swimming.

They all wanted to go out on the next ride, but before they went Karin took Ayanna and her colt into the lake to cool off. 

The second trail ride Sarah Reinhard rode Sally double with Taegan, Braelyn rode Cookie all by herself, Anna rode Bunni double with Kensley, Karin rode Ayanna and her colt followed. 

 Kensley decided to stop riding Bunni and ride the golf cart, that was much smoother. She found a dandylion all ready to blow while we were waiting for the horses. 

After the ride we all went swimming again. All of this fit in with a mare coming in for breeding, trying to cover her, cleaning stalls, taking the IV out of Rosaleigh's filly, teasing Sheena and when she showed covering her, moving Dakota into the breeding shed and when she would not go inside to get out of the sun, hosing her down, moving Madeira and her filly in with the group in the middle paddock, hosing the stallions down to cool them off and losing a check.  Mercede's the owner of the mare that came in today gave me the stud fee check which I placed in my pocket but then I went on two trail rides and changed and swam and lost the check. Oh well if it doesn't show up by the time Lacy is ready to go home we will ask for another.  It was so hot the mares were taking turns cooling off in the pond. Below it was Sheena's turn. 

She knows how to be comfortable when the thermometer is reading over 90 degrees. She flopped down and stayed there for a bit. 

We met at the playground for potluck then had a campfire so we could make somemores for dessert. Phil took the girls fishing.

Braelyn pulled in a big bass.

 It wasn't too long before Taegan caught one too.

 Gertie and I ran to Dollar General for icecream as it was just so hot this evening and we all enjoyed a bowl of icecream sitting around the fire.

A LONG day but really packed full of fun.
