Compost Pile
New Togs

Since she no longer experiences bad weather, Mathilda has a new stable blanket instead of her old turn-out(s). It is deliberately sized small to cut down on the material around her feet as she clambers up. Those Rambo blankets are portable tents. I’d take a picture of her modeling it, but we know how that goes.
When I needed a new winter coat this season, did I buy yards of fan$y new plaid in which to drape myself? Ha! I dug Hubby’s old wool coat out of a closet. Seriously, he worn this on our first date in 1986.
Ready For My Close-up: Percy
Roadside Attraction
Weekend Plans
Saturday: Horsemanship Challenge. The inward-looking, obsessive side of me wants to know why on earth I ever agreed to hop on strange saddlebred. The outward-looking, perky side of me thinks this will be an adventure. I am trying to dial up the volume on the latter.
Sunday: Awards banquet for Winter Tournament shows [one, two, three]. Perhaps one day I will be sufficiently evolved to be interested in achievement for its own sake rather than for the lure of big, gaudy ribbons. That day is not yet.
Monday: Tooth extraction which I hope will be a good thing [Hi].
I’ll be back to report on the first two when I have recovered from the third. Meanwhile enjoy a few days of horse photos and gratuitous animal pictures. If I have not returned before the photo posts run out, not to worry. It means I’m swanning about the house being catered to. Why does that always happen when I am too sick to enjoy it?

Foto Friday: Carrot’s Eye View
The Sunday Stills challenge for this week is “Fruits and Vegetables.” At our barn, f&v means one thing: carrots, carrots, and more carrots.

I have prior carrot pics (including gratuitous kitten with carrots) but elected to stay with the spirit of the thing and take new. Further carrot commentary.
