Aldrich Farm

I spent most my day on the tractor trying to manage some mud  The stalls were quite messy as well as that big dirt pasture. Once on a roll I got busy cleaning up the hay barn area as well. I put together this smilebox of all my efforts.

Ichigo was a great dog and followed me as I worked or watched from a distance at the gate or the nearest pile. I was proud of her, though at the end of the she smelt much like the goo' I was working on cleanign up. She got a much needed bath when the work was completed.

Super however spent his last day with his Fantasy and most of the herd. His bad habit of tail chewing has returned, complaints have been filed, my daughter's geldings both have shortened tails. I am a big softy, I hate seeing him seperated. On the other hand it is also good for him to be his own mule, spend some quality time away. He can still see everyone so that keeps him from climbing fences and he does have Mystie the ol' mare in the evening to keep him company.

My day ended with Kenny, the hubby making me dinner, my daughter making cookies and I myself made a new batch of fudge. Then I got started on a new painting for my brothers office. He had requested paintings of horses running with a black horse as the main subject. A black horse is the symbol for his auto detail shop, I want to surprise him this Christmas with some finished projects.

Right now I can hear the wind a whipping ....we are in for a change in the weather.
