A (hopefully) Winter Wonderland

“Winter is coming,

The squirrels are getting fat.

Please put a blanket on your horse’s back

If you haven’t got a blanket, a long thick coat will do,

If you haven’t got a long thick coat then read this blog through!!”

Staying Storm Savvy

I am sure that the last couple of weeks have been a challenge for all of us here in New Jersey and surrounding areas. In the wake of the two severe storms, there is even MORE work to be done now in the home and in the pasture.

Pruning Out Poisonous Plants!

I hope that you have been enjoying the fresh weather breezing in throughout the month of October lately! My favorite gal pal Hugme Christi and I enjoy a brisk morning romp in our field and then graze leisurely while soaking up the warm sun rays during the day. Do you know why fall is the best time of the year? Not only do we get to roll around in all of the leaf piles, but because it smells like a tasty vegetarian Thanksgiving feast for horses! Every day, the air becomes a little more aromatic with the sweet smell of turning leaves and sweet grasses. It’s like an olfactory sensory explosion, and I really just can’t get enough of it! It is almost as tantalizing as an apple-filled doughnut sitting on the picnic table outside my pasture.  Almost.
