Hail Today Gone Tomorrow

The first few pictures were taken before the bad weather set in. We have been so busy there just isn't time to stop and shoot.
Stuart is eating alone here, but you can be sure Skittles is not far away. Each of them had been loners for years and this winter they discovered one another. Everyone needs a good buddy.


Sparkle and Ruby are together all the time. (Skittles is up above). They are in a single stall in the barn and are quite happy to be side by side. Skittles and Stuart share a stall.


Levi with his Rosie in the background have become inseparable. When we wanted to put them in the barn for the stormy weather, all I had to do was to catch and lead Levi and Rosie trotted bedside us, then cantered into a stall and waited for us. I am so happy that they have found a partner.
Marnie posed with his girls Amira and Tess. Since the bad weather started we have put them in a double stall area in the barn. They are so compatible. No squabbling nor fussing.
Jim enjoyed some quality time with Bo in the round ring before we turned them in their area. Sugar and Ginger look on. Bo is a mustang cross-maybe a Clydesdale?
This is the only picture I took today. We worked outside most of the day, then scooted to Oroville for banking and Tractor Supply Company. Jim was sure it was going to rain and I was sure we could make it home before the storm. We put the feed bags in the back and started home. The sprinkling began . When we got here Jim quickly unloaded the bags and went to check the power shack. About that time the lightning crashed and the hail came down hard. There was about 2 inches on the ground when it finally quit. Wow!! The critters were not happy.





Lexi's foot is still sore and Dr Darling will be here in the morning. We gave her two powerful shots and she's still not willing to move much. Couldn't get her to the barn so she's well wrapped because it's supposed to storm again tonight.





We never seem to be able to get out vet bill under $1000.00 Can anyone help us pay our wonderful Dr Darling?





Thank you Eileen G, Dana M and Mary R for your continued support.





Working at the store tomorrow. Maybe I'll remember the camera.
