It has been a week of family stuff, not much going on with the horses. They are all on pasture, and about all I have had time for is teasing Ruby.
I did manage to finish setting up my garden and even got pole beans and wax beans transplanted.
I have some cantaloupe and broccoli sprouted but not ready for transplanting, and will be putting lettuce seeds in later today. A trip to the greenhouse on Thursday for tomato plants and maybe even a rose (you know I gotta have at least one rose!) and then dig a spot for a few carrots and it will be done.
We finally got a great soaking rain last evening, complete with some thunder that had Beamer heading full tilt for his barn. It was amazing to see how fast he can go with those stiff front legs. I really think that having him on straight grazing has helped him to move around and limber up those knees.
Thankfully the smoke cleared with the rain. Ted's family have come back to their evacuated homes- and I was sad to hear that some of the businesses in that town were looted. What a bunch of greedy jerks. Probably druggies.
On our way home from the family gathering we went through an area where there are wild horses. These two stallions were grazing together beside the road.
A couple of very impressive dudes!

I hope they fires are all out. It’s starting to clear up here, too. I can finally see the mountains.
How cool that you have wild horses!! Yes, they’re fat. There must be a lot of winter food up there.
Wild horses! Fun to see. I hope it rains and rains:)
Can't wait to see the saddle. I plan on roaching some manes on my mules this week and saddling up. You encourage me!
Those manes on those stallions are to die for! Wish I had such a wonderful 'mane'!
Wow, those wild horses are something! Fat and sassy!
