Things

Yesterday after Jim and I had gone to the Fire Company BBQ we had a nice ride in the rain to Paradise to buy a diesel can. We started to talk about "things" and how some people needed things to make them happy and how some folks could get rid of things and it didn't seem to bother them.
We decided that "things" didn't care whether or not you owned them, but animals did. Actually we don't feel we own any of the animals here. We just share a space with them. The critters do appreciate and rely on our care and it does make a difference to them whether or not they are cared for.
Oh, I still like my "things" but if they should all disappear and all I had was my animals life would still be good. I know the horses would share the barn.
Figured out how to get the pictures again so here are some older pictures.
The calla lilies are loving this rain-sun cooler weather. Think I'll plant the whole front with them. Maybe different colored ones.

When Quest was out he and Bucky had quite a play day. Little Bucky knows that this day he was a big Appy. He is so very beautiful with a black shiny coat and long flowing tail. His club foot is doing well with the shoes Aaron made for him.








Doesn't Callie look comfy in the hay and sunshine?

When we did vaccinations a while ago we also wormed the horses. This is what the pile of dewormers looked like. That was 60 tubes .
The rain is supposed to be gone by Tues with 80 degrees weather. We are slippery and muddy and it is getting tiresome.

Today I let Levi II and Rosie loose. Levi hasn't been eating well and I thought he might be a little depressed at having to stay in the barn. Both Levi and Rosie cantered out of the barn, looked at the hay that was out and turned around to eat the hay that was in the barn. He ate and ate the same hay he didn't want when he was locked in. Oh well, maybe just knowing he could be loose made him happy. He and Rosie can be free for a while.

Thank you to Christina F, Mary R, Lisa A and Cathy S for your donations. ( I may not need things, but the money sure helps with the Sanctuary).

Thank you, too, to all who donate items for the Thrift Store.
