After the horses disappeared through some trees as I was following them, Cassidy Rain reappeared, seeming to be waiting for me to come on along and catch up.

We’ve had bits and skiffs of snow, up to about an inch and a half, but it melts very quickly and seeps into the thirsty ground, leaving delicious mud. The mud makes travel a bit challenging (!), but we need the moisture so badly, it’s impossible to complain – and leaves us wanting more!

A good deal of that fabulous snow is now melted, but who doesn’t appreciate that scenery? And the background is pretty nice, too. 😉





So soft, so beautiful

Sweet Spirit is a tiny little mare with BIG spirit. She doesn’t often find herself in the spotlight compared with some of her flashier friends, but this girl has always had my heart. 🙂
