Levi II is such a brave, brave boy. The shots really hurt him, but he just stands there and takes it. He's still a little lame, but seems to be better. I worry that he doesn't eat as well as he should. The vet will be out to give him a good check-up.
Frankie and Moon Dancer love being out. Frankie comes when he's called. He trots up and is ready for hugs. Then Moon meanders over for her turn. She loves having her back rubbed.
Jim has been building more fences. We are making a barn yard so we can have the hay protected. It's been too dangerous having the horses nibble on the hay when it's piled so high. The loose horses do not like the idea of being kept away from the house. Frankie and the goats were supervising while Jim worked. When Moon came over, Frankie chased her away saying, "This is man's work."
We have mud. Mud in the front yard. Mud in the barn. Mud in the garden and mud on the roads. I think we should rename our place Muddy Acres. Or Gooey Farm. Or Slippery Rocks. Or Slide Inn.
Today I went out to plant a few more seeds and to apologize to the plants that are growing. I promised them warmth and sunshine and have not delivered. In fact more rain is predicted. However, it is supposed to get in the 80's next week. Then it will be steamy and buggy. Poor plants and horses.
There is a BBQ fundraiser tomorrow at Clear Creek Crossing Store and Gas Station for Volunteer Fire Company #25. Corner of Durham-Pentz and Clark Rd from 10-2. OutBack is preparing the food. Come on by and help support our fire-fighting volunteers.
The other day Jim was bitten by a spider. There is a big hole in his thumb. When I asked him what kind of spider he thought it was, he said, "It was an Alongcame a....spider." Maybe the poison went to his brain.
