The horses rule
Category: Getting my garden started | Posted: Tue Aug 21, 2007 8:59 pm We just returned Thursday, from 6 weeks in the city, celebrating the birth of our 2nd grandchild, and helping out, the now family of 4, however we could. Mimi loves her 4 horses very much, and for her to be gone from them for such a long time, requires the most important of events, and of course Connor's birth was just such an event. The day after we returned, the kids came up for a week's holiday at the end of Mom's maternity leave. I tell you all this because it all sort of leads toward all 6 of us going to the barn to spend some time with the horses, and introduce Connor to them, for the first time. This is my first visit to the barn since our return, but Mimi's second. Her riding horse, Gwen, has been used by a young girl, at a summer day camp sort of a thing. The youngsters are learning to ride and care for horses. Therefore Gwen has had activity during our absence, but was none the less, obviously glad to see Mimi's return. Gwen was turned out with several other horses, and very much to Mimi's pleasure, as we approached, Gwen spotted us, and she came trotting up to the gate. The baby, Pablo, has had some difficulties of late. He may have had a seizure, of unidentified origin. There is some concern there, and the Vet is doing some testing. The yearling, Payton, full brother to Pablo, is great, as is their mother, Dahlila. While there, I took some 40 pictures, here you will find some of them.

Wow, Pablo sure has grown! I sure hope the tests come back good and he will be OK.
Such beautiful animals. I wonder what a horse looks like through Connor's eyes? A thing of wonder and grandeur I'm sure :)
Gwen is a real beauty and certainly looks pleased to see Mimi!!! It's great to see Connor being introduced to the horses at such an early age.
Lovely horses, all of them! I feel your worry about Pablo. We had to put down our shetland pony last autumn. We still miss him. Login or register to leave a comment. |
