unplugged fans, shut all necessary doors, peeped at the horses turned out overnight, made sure the new arrival from this afternoon was calm in her stall and sashayed out.

Didn't spill a drop!



Evening barn check is almost always a very peaceful affair and happily done with a cold one in hand. I have 11 horses out to competitions this weekend so it's quiet here tonight. My three dogs are comfortably draped all over me at the moment. All's well in pastoral land...
