IS IT SPRING?







Very chilly this morning considering the temperature yesterday...sunny and bright with a brisk wind.  The good thing about it, is that the ground is drying out quickly.  95% of the snow is gone.   After taking the shedding blade to the horses, I had to at least put a sheet back on them today. The temperature drop would have been too extreme for them, a 20 degree change could bring on colic.  They all came through the winter very well (Shenna has gained some weight back and I think it is all due to alfalfa cubes...  I find it hard to believe that she is 36 this year).  Tomorrow my friend Sandy is going to come over and help me with Abbe, so she can apply what we are doing to her young mare.
