Ideal conditions for part of the day. 74 degrees, a nice breeze and plenty of sunshine. A little before 3 we had a torrential downpour and it is still raining.
Woke up around 5:15 and went out to the kitchen before 6.
My plan was to go watch Lisa teaching part of a lesson, followed by a trip out to see Buddy.
Before leaving, I got on my trike and took Little Wonder for a walk out to the back 40. On the way home he stopped by the outdoor arena and finally emptied out the food he has been eating....twice! Made me so happy. It's been a very long week worrying about him.
I did make it over to the clinic, and always marvel at Lisa's teaching. There are not too many instructors (who are Grand Prix riders) that can explain things the way she does. Others must have that figured out too, as she is doing clinics or judging all over the country.
I really enjoyed watching this horse and rider.
I could not resist grabbing this shot of Dawn's rooster when I was leaving
Then there is Buddy. He has not gained any of his weight back and has aged at least 10 years.
His life is very different from what it was here and if he can stand to be by himself, I would take him back.
Jenny stopped up just when it started to pour and we ended up going over to Scott's house to check out the bedroom and walk in closet he has been working on. They sure have a lot of good ideas. LW went with us.
I made a good dinner when we got home.
Night all.

Buddy, would he manage with a smaller pony as a friend back at Skoog farm? I can tell you are worrying about him , and hope you find a way to make things better for you both.
I laughed at your video of LW. I'm trying to decide if he keeps looking back to ask, "are you coming?" or whether what he is trying to say is, "why are you following me?!". It must hurt you to the core to see that Buddy isn't thriving. Hugs.
The music fits LW's stride perfectly! I would bring Buddy home. Deal with the alone issue later. Right now he needs you. I know this is wearing in you and that is not a good place to be. My unasked for two cents.
