Canada day and Kai

Didn't do a lot of celebrating today, but got a lot done around the place. Ted got out the backhoe and repaired a leaky water stand-pipe, which will make it easier for watering the mares in their pasture, and we worked on fencing off a new area of grass for the girls, using electric fence attached to fenceposts. Got the posts in last night, attached insulators and tape today- til I ran out of tape! Will have to get another roll to finish it off.
I'm critter-sitting for my friends that own Kai, so of course I have a photo of him to share.

He is just as sweet as he ever was! It's interesting that his color turned out chocolate brown; when I got him genetically tested, his color is officially smoky black. For those of you new to my blog, this yearling colt is a full brother to Rio; if you check my labels on the sidebar for "Midnight Coyote" you'll see lots of photos of him.
