Red Hot

The Forge of the “Blacksmith Shop on Wheels.” Every so often, I sub for their driver, driving their blacksmith-equipped van to different locations to shoe horses!

The beginning of our hike on a local “Rails to Trails” trail! A brisk cool morning, but we had “Mission Accomplished!” We were hoping to sight a Red-Shouldered Hawk that had been on this section of the trail, and succeeded!

The five sisters and their mother stopped at this home for lunch. These folks had been neighbors when they were growing up, so were childhood friends. They even brought me a plate of food. While waiting This team of horses came in from the field so the horses could rest and the man could eat lunch. Then they headed out again in the afternoon, to continue the Spring plowing!

Paying Respect

On the Mother’s birthday, I took her and 5 of her 10 daughters to visit friends and relatives all day. They stopped at this cemetery to respects to someone.

Done Shopping!

All Aboard!

My mother always said that as soon as we saw a bumblebee, we could go barefooted. I saw a bumblebee yesterday, as well as this young boy, barefooted!

Out to Pasture

This is the first day out in the pasture for these ponies. I didn’t get any action shots of them running around.
