The Dirty Blanket Contest

Not quite as bad today as the wind eventually died down.  What a difference....the temperature in the barn was 25 tonight.

Jenny got up at 4am and drove Ariana to the airport for an early flight to Las Vegas.  She made it home safe and sound.  We sure had a good time while she was here!

This is what it looked like before I went out for chores.  Wish it had lasted all day.


The sunshine sure helped my brain!

Below, I was looking through Rebel's windows.

He ended up behind the grooming room....
and Buddy chose sunshine and the front paddock.  Aren't their blankets lovely?  If they can't find mud to roll in they sleep on their manure....especially Buddy.

It took awhile, but a new blossom finally arrived.



I made paninis for lunch and we watched the Bill's game.
They played the Patriots and lost.  I was surprised, but both teams were not playing their first string (to save them for the playoffs with no injuries) and whatever was going to happen....happened.  The Bills are 13 and 4.  The Patriots 4 and 13.
We had some bananas that were ready to take a hike so I made some banana bread loaded with walnuts.
Chores at 5.  Much darker than yesterday and no eerie light.


I am not making dinner.  It's every man for himself.
Night all.

Always enjoy your posts and photos! Snowing here now in our part of VA just outside Richmond, but 'wintery mix' to follow. No accumulation from either snow nor ice expected tho it will continue through tomorrow.

Hugs!

I think the boys are simply decorating their blankets. It's been cold here and will remain so for awhile. Not a surprise.
