Shane before the rain. She looks almost sleek, doesn’t she?
It has been warm. It has been terribly dry. It has been very unwinterlike.
Until Saturday.
Many thanks to Hawaii and California – and Ma Nature – for the “pineapple express,” which flew all the way to Colorado’s Western Slope and delivered much-needed rain to Disappointment Valley.

WOW! Will the horses be able to grow winter coats if the weather becomes more ‘winter like”?? Shane looks stunning….but not ready for winter.
Their coats tend to “smooth down” during the warm spells, and then they “fluff out” again when it gets cold and/or rains/snows (it got cold enough to snow overnight). Those are highly technical terms, by the way! Ha! Don’t worry, the horses actually are very fuzzy, and their hair “lofts” when it gets cold. 🙂
She’s looking good, ready for cold weather.
