Milton 2.0

How are Milton & I faring with our do over? Very well, thank you. We are doing very little, but I’m very excited about it. His ground-tie is a work in progress. He stays in place but is not immobile. We are at the stage where he moves a hoof, I move it back. HeContinue reading “Milton 2.0”

Time To Change The Sheets

Milton is only in the stall for a few hours a day. Therefore, we do not often have to clean down to the bedsprings. Thank the Lord for husbands and tractors.
