Back Yard Musings

Nevel had decided to jump his gate a few weeks back and knocked it over the first time then smashed it the second time in order to graze in the back yard illegally.  

This weekend I decided to let them both out to graze legall by the pool.

They did a good job of clearing an embankment, plus mowing down some clumps of sparse grass. “Better than a dirt paddock” they said!

Morning at Black Dog Knoll

 

The Boys are HOME

 Moves are hateful

But mainly because 

I HAVE WAY TOO MUCH STUFF!

too many interests and dabblings!

The easiest part was moving the horses.

Persee & Nevel walked right up on to the trailer like they knew it was going to be a good thing.

Neither had been on the trailer in 2 years as trails and arena were accessible.

Nevel is so silly!

Persee had a slight jump off of the trailer and splashed poo all over me, then he had some startles at something rustling in the weeds on the way to the barn/paddock but settled right in eating grass.

Nevel also ate grass immediately of course.

Enjoy it boys.  It will soon be gone.

There are 3 paddocks with a series of gates.  One has narrow passage to the only stall I had open, so they were a bit silly at first with that but soon found their way to the bigger steep area.

We still won’t be riding for awhile.

But at least they are home!!!

Cool, California views from Black Dog Knoll : )
