Spring has sprung

I got Clancy's turn out pen set up yesterday. She is one happy horse now! Room to move and grass to eat in the sunshine; life is good.

I had to get after her to move out a bit, she just wanted to drop her head and chow down on that spring grass; I am restricting her and Beamer to short turn out while the grass is so rich and their systems adjust to grazing again.
I got the insurance on my trailer today, so hauling time is about to begin. Time this stout girl went back to work.
Totally unrelated but on a side note- my garden is right next to Clancy's pen, and I noticed that I have some volunteer plants there- some lettuce (I let the romaine lettuce go to seed) as well as spinach. Yippee! I also have kale that over wintered.
Looks like there is lots of green around here for St. Patrick's day tomorrow!

Oh, I'm so excited to see some green! I'll be letting mine out this weekend for some short grazing. <3

Our horses were FINALLY able to go out after a ton of rain this week. Huzzah!

Oh garden. I almost rototilled the garden last week but Neil said its too early :( Hes probly right but it was so nice out! I do have seeds and dirt ready to start some seedlings, maybe that will help.

Our grass has a tinge of green and the horses keep hanging around so I will let them into the summer pasture, but I'm holding off for a week (or 3) I want the grass to have a chance to grow before they move, but they can see the green tame grass there.
