The last of the dirt has been applied and the rain has settled the dirt and we are essentially trench-free at the Midnight Canyon Ranch. We need to do some leveling, but basically we are finished. Jim has moved on to the next project (Kristl's hay/muck/mud/drainage issues) and is almost done with that. She is living in the round pen for now and Rodeo has finally quite wondering where the hell HIS "MMmmaarrreeee" is? Jim removed a panel, removed countless loads of muck and returned over 23 loads of dirt to the pen. I think she will enjoy landscaping it to her desired liking.
The trenching set the pen cleaning back about a month, so we have some catching up to do. Timme's got done when he got OUT and browsed his way thru every feed can in the barn and then visited every horse in the barn and was probably bragging he was out and they weren't. Oh well, snaps get double checked at the ranch now. He lived, no heat in his feet and no bellyache, he is a tough little pumpkin colored boy. Sadly Rodeo only got ridden once this month, so he is the beggar when we talk about needing out.
It friday and I'm off to a lesson at Kelly's on Kit. Who I hear is so desparate to be out that even standoffish, Idontknowyou Kit is putting her head in anybodys halter at the gate. She got shoes about a week ago, so she's good to go. Can't wait to learn more on her about training and reining and spins and , and and and ...... gotta ride !!!
