I had a brief “thanks” interview on the Valentines/Love episode of stable scoop. Neat radio shows and fun peeps. Check it out if you have a sec. The episode is online at http://www.horseradionetwork.com/2009/02/13/stable-scoop-episode-26-equine-love-101-and-uncle-jimmys-squeezy-buns/ and I’m introduced at about -1:03:50 in the piece.

Zita Obedience School
Here’s little Zita at obiedence school with Ex and Richard. Boy she’s shaping up into a well trained young pup!
A Hard Days Work
Let’s see… More trash clean up, stump removal, pull up old fence posts, work on tractor, burn paper products and some wood. one gets a tad dirty at the end of a day like this! look how happy he is tho! nice plug for the black sheep too! if you’re ever in ashland, oregon definitely check the out. they are online at http://theblacksheep.com/
Plethora Of Colors
It’s been one clean up project after another with all the junk that was left here on the farm but it’s honestly been fun and the hard work soooo rewarding. we were left with oodles of paint and sadly they were too old to use and there’s not a way to recycle so they are slowly drying out with the unfortunate future of becoming landfill. 🙁
Picollo Helps
With Zita away at doggie training (check out http://www.rwrkennels.com/) Picollo was getting bored so he decided to help with the fencing and stump removal project for the afternoon. 🙂
Picollo hard at work…
Ex hard at work too…
It Never Rains In Southern California
Well it rains there sometimes but i thought for certain that it doesn’t get to friggin 15 degrees F in North Carolina. What the heck??? Even with frozen pipes horseys still need water so the kitchen sink was the next best option and hey bring out a couple of buckets of really hot water and that just melts the existing ice away!
More Steel
Smiling like a young pup bringing home a freshly killed snake, Ex rolled up with the John Deere and this old John Deere hay bailer in tow. Wait a minute! Why is this thing in our backyard I thought. He was just too excited about pulling it out of the corner of the field where it has sat rusting for lord knows how many years! Anyway… this too was picked up for steel recycling. I’m quite sure these salvage guys picked up several hundred extra in steel from us!
Carrara’s New Custom Halter
When Terry emailed me for measurements of Carrara’s head I was just thinking to see general sizing for halter. I had NO idea it was for a completely CUSTOM halter. Wow!!!! I know it’s standard when you guys a horse they come with a halter and lead but this I’d never imagined!!! I couldn’t get Miss C to stand still long enough to get a good shot by my oh my this thing stays in the house as it’s just too dang beautiful and even has her name with her dam and sire on the side! Thanks Ter!!!!! Riverside rocks! Check them out online for some pretty amazing horses and definitely take a look at the babies too! Wow! http://www.riversideequestrian.org/.
She thinks my tractor’s sexy
well yes that’s somewhat true. one of my favorite things about our new farm is that it came with a classic ’53 John Deere. i don’t know if i’d go as far as calling it sexy but honestly… it was a huge selling point. of course the 3 point bleeds oil but i’ve found the perfect person who loves working old tractors, is honest and charges a fair price!
Quite literally… tons of steel!
i guess that’s like buns of steel? no not really but i would imagine there is over a ton of steel in that contain that was left on the property as scrap. it will be headed to the recycling center soon!
