Some non horse things in this post! We are dog sitting...
This is Remi, she goes home on Friday. A quiet and sweet girl who has claimed my couch.
The kittens are growing and getting cuter by the minute. They are very well socialized now.
They leave for their new home with one of my sisters in a week.
The baby barn swallows who shared the barn with the mares finally fledged. About a day or so of hanging out in the barn and off they went.
My flower garden is going well, so nice to have a bit of colour there now.
This dianthus survived our -40 winter
Volunteer Cosmos from the seeds that dropped from last years flowers
Also volunteer calendula
And gotta have at least one horse thing-
The temps have dropped, maybe due in part to all the smoke that once again lays heavy on the land. Such a scorching hot two weeks I'm sure have contributed to the number of fires- it's tinder dry and crunchy here. But we do have thunderstorms in the forecast (along with a tornado warning) so hopefully a little rain. We are fortunate to be living on a river, all our pastures are still lush and green; it's only the lawn that is crunchy.
For all those who are getting rain, please send some to western Canada! Trade ya for some sunshine!

Those Nasturtiums are so pretty! Velvet would like them! Those are some cute kitten and I bet it was nice to have a dog to pet!
We have a visiting Remi in our lives too! Popular name, also for babies these days. Nice to have found a home for all three adorable kittens.
Thanks for sharing your colorful blooms! Oh, and Koda is a thistle snapper too (ouch!). Glad your pastures have remained lush. Enjoy!
Oh are I looks sweet. I’m glad you haven’t been impacted by the fires.
i just love your gardens! kitties, horses! so lovely! ❤️
Our mules are great at plucking thistle flowers off the stalk. They prefer their nettles a bit wilted though.
I had a lot of volunteer pumpkins and squash appear in our pasture where I dumped seeds from last year. Free squash as long as the mules don't eat them!
It’s dry here, too, and the fires have been raging. You’re lucky to be so close to that River. What a beautiful spot. The kittens look very sweet now and your flowers are stunning! Good job!
Those kittens are just too cute. Can't believe how fast they grew :-o.
