Catch-up time – again!
July 26th, 2010I think I am playing farmtown too much, riding too much and just staying too busy for this every day or week blog LOL!!
I rode in the Fourth of July parade here in my little town. My first parade – not the horse’s! We won second best theme – “Farm Life”. Biggin was his awesome self – except for the Llamas. I guess all of the horses thought the lanolin smelled bad because NONE of the horses could stand the beautiful llamas.
(side note about this pic – does everyone still feel and look fat to themselves after they lose a lot of weight?! LOL)
The 20X40 shed is gutted, inventoried, dispersed to the burn pile, dump pile or salvaged and the new ones are up. I painted the shed – referred to as the barn – pink! The walls are med pink and the floor is cranberry.
There is hay in it and four saddle trees – pic shows just 2. I am working on a shelf that will run the width of the barn across the back for seasonal items like the water heater and duck heat lamp.
Thinking of the ducks…. I am entering 3 of the young ones in the county fair this year. And the orchid that grows 8 – 10 shoots full of blossoms. We found out that 2 of the new ducks are male… was wondering why I was not finding eggs! Hopefully when the sheds are completed, I will be able to finish the duck house before winter. The sheds are getting the roofs finished, a storage area made between them and steps to my barn.
I have been riding Biggin about every other day now. Up and down the mountains and around the trees….. the other day we went about 8 miles. I just keep pushing farther and farther 
Hopefully I will be back soon…. happy trails, everyone!
