The weanlings were moved into the middle paddock today. Their bale was almost gone in the other paddock and now that Isla has gone to her new home that paddock had almost a full bale of the good stuff. PLUS it has 3 shelters just in case the weather starts to turn bad. I had to put a halter on Maddalen and Jewel's filly to move them. Karin led Maddalen and was very impressed with how well she leads now. I worked with Jewel's filly and she is getting it. She still doesn't LIKE me very well but is tolerating me. Thankfully she loves her grain. Kayla and Magda came today to work with the stallions. I was busy with the weanlings while they worked with Valiant but I heard later he put on a big show of bucking in place. Evan was a sweet heart. Karin snapped the picture below of Magda sitting on him.
Sarah brought Eden and Zion out to 'help' their daddy catch a deer. Sarah used the golf cart to take Zion down on the trails to where her daddy was waiting. Below she is all ready to go with her orange hunting hat on.
Zion got to go on the 'hunt' with her daddy. Nolan sent the picture below.
When they got back Zion said very sadly, "we didn't catch a deer." Sarah took the girls home and Nolan went back to deer hunting instead of deer catching. Tonight for dinner we drove through the Culvers drive through and ordered 1 fish dinner with an extra piece of fish and an extra side of broccoli. Once we got the bag of food we drove into Home Depot parking lot to eat, opened up the sack to find they had forgotten the cole slaw but since we paid $1.99for the extra broccoli Mark called them and they brought the cole slaw over. My taste buds are still dull and the fish didn't taste as good as it should but still had a nice crunch. The cole slaw I could taste so I was very glad Mark called them for that. Joan had to take mom to prompt care today. She fell a couple weeks ago at Middle Grove when we were camping and cut the back of her leg. Well today it looked infected. Joan sent the picture below to mom's doctor and they suggested she take her to prompt care.
The problem with living here in the winter is that we didn't SEE the wound to know it wasn't healing well. Mom was keeping it wrapped and it was too cold to be outside without covering up. We are thinking mom needs to head down to Gulf Shores to let some of that sunshine, warmth and salt air help heal it. She was prescribed antibiotics and has started on them.
