Hot as Snot

Of course, there has been no riding this week, with temps reaching for the 100s everyday. Today is the beginning of a slight cool off over the next couple of days, and then it looks like were right back to hot hot HOT!

I have seen Gwin a lot though. Gwen and Carrie are gone. They left Tuesday night and will not be back until this weekend. Carrie also bought a new horse (small like Chako), and they took both of their new ponies with them on their trip. Jack and I have been taking care of the three "big" horses. It's been SO much fun. Even in the heat.

I go early in the am, between 5 and 6, to get the heavy work done before the sun comes up. Then I go back around noon to let them out on the pasture for about and hour, make and give them their supplements and treat, and fill their feed again. I have enjoyed it so much.

Greg and I have been considering setting things up to bring Gwin HOME to our place. :) 

We're looking into all that it would require (it would require A LOT). But with the alternative being that we continue to pay to board her for the rest of her life $$$ and never really have her, plus not being able to get Zeek a horse later because we could never afford to pay to board two... it just might be the wisest choice for us.

After this week, even in the tough temps, and taking care of three vs. just my own one, I'm feeling more certain than ever that I would love to have her home with me. I get SO much out of taking care of her.

We'll see. Right now we are getting some quotes and really evaluating our property to see what part of it would be best to clear and use for her... there are SO many other things to consider as well.

Fun and exciting stuff! :)
