The "Horsey Houdini"


Today is the first day of summer – my favorite time of the year is here FINALLY! School’s out, the weather is bright, and I can play all day long. I got so excited to play that I decided to try a little sneaky way to  walk right out of my front gate! Just call me the “horsey Houdini”!  There were no magic tricks up my sleeve; it turns out that someone forgot to latch the gate properly. What else was I going to do; when life presents you with an open door, you go through it!

Allergy Frenzy!

The last month has brought many exceptional experiences over at the farm. After 17 years, the cicadas are back and screaming away in the trees.  Sometimes they fly close to me and Christi, but we run away as fast as we can because they look too similar to horseflies - we don’t want to stick around to find out which pest it really is! Other than the non-stop racket, there is also a lot of non-stop sneezing going on around here! Did you know that some horses are dealing with the same allergy triggers as you may be!?
