And Then It's Monday

First Monday in June. The weekend proved a cooling trend with lower than normal humidity. Wow - what a huge difference that made!

Tom mowed late into the night on Friday night, making sure that all the weed's flowers were knocked down. Also able to pin-point the serious groundhog mounds going on in our unfenced pasture. We're going to bomb those suckers! Can't wait for that fun to begin!

Tom also is working with the little ones, jumping lessons. Lil Fred is extremely athletic and light on his feet. Sprite, not so much. She has as much respect for the rails as she did for the electric fence. She plows right through without lifting her legs. She's lost weight, but has not progressed in the 'lightness' realm.

We rode on Saturday at the closest park - We ended up trail clearing, too, the wet spring has almost obliterated the trails. And lots of branches down. Plus, both boys threw a shoe, within minutes of each other. With Skip you can't even tell, but with dramatic KC, you'd think he had a nail right through the frog. The farrier will be out on Monday.

Sunday was spent working on the patio project, straightening out the house, and playing with the horses. Now only one more weekend before our vacation. O boy!
