Finally - Weather Relief & A Healthy Horse

The ridiculous heat wave of the past few weeks has finally broken and I might finally be able to ride Rico again tomorrow.  90+ and even triple digit temps combined with a stable cough have made riding him the past few weeks an idea that was quickly dismissed. 

Yes, I baby my horse. But really, its not like we're training for the Olympics.  But the weather has broken, and the vet has given him a clean bill of health, so tomorrow morning its go time, and I am so looking forward to being on my boy again.
 
Unless, of course, its raining.

We Finally Hung the Sign!

Since the man was adamantly opposed to hanging the sign on the mailbox (he still insists were NOT a farm), the sign is now proudly displayed on the barn between the loft access door and the peak of the roof.

It was quite a comical scene of me, my parents, and my uncle (all in their late 70's)  trying to figure out the best way to hang the sign as well as manipulate a 20' ladder to get it up there!  I'll post pics tonight!
