On the Sixth Day of Christmas I bring you six Mustangs eating.From the left - Amelia-the sorrel with a blaze, Wrangler the buckskin and is about a whole hand taller than the rest, Abby who is Katie's, Raven that is a real sweetheart, Liberty who wants a forever person of her own, and the bottom picture is Pepper that is the love of all of us.
I fed the kitties and Red the hen came to eat with them. She won't stay in the chicken pen. She hides out in the barn.
Bob left to go deliver the meat to western Washington this morning. It is all safely with the people who ordered it. The road was bare and dry all the way even over the pass. He will go down to see his brother for a little while in the morning and then come home. I pray the weather will hold. By evening we are supposed to get freezing rain. Hate that stuff. Later this week and next week it is going to warm up and they predict rain. On top of 24 inches of snow will be a big awful mess.
I took Sage for a little walk around this morning and she did just fine. She did not understand why she didn't just go to her daytime pen but came with me. Her black parts are shiny black now. Even the woolly hair. Rosie lays down and rolls as soon as you put her out but I have never seen Sage roll. I picked Emma's rope up and she will lead and follow but heaven forbid that you should walk towards her. I hate to send her home because he said he would just put her down if we couldn't get her good and gentle. Cash went to his new home yesterday afternoon. He is a real sweetie and I expect that Byran will be riding home soon.
The chores in the morning will be more challenging. I will have to carry hot water to the chickens and the goat. Oh well. I CAN do it.
Blessings
