Sharpie's inspection was going to be today, July 28, 2017, but due to likely all-day thunderstorms, it was moved to yesterday. This meant I was already at work, working, when I received the notice that Sharpie was going to be inspected[...]

Yet another "In Memory of" post... my trailer has died. It is now in the trailer graveyard at the repair shop. Technically, I could perform CPR on it, and revive it. But the cost of doing so is the same as the price I initially paid[...]
Sunday was a big day for cleaning out more woods. We cut down more trees, and disposed of the trees we cut down. D'Arcy had recruited some family members and we became a well oiled machine, cutting down, and dragging out to the fire he[...]

The first foal was born! It's a dark bay colt, with a big star and three small socks. A few days ago, I was saying that I hoped it was a dark bay with white socks and a stripe, and this is pretty close, I'll take it as fulfilling my ex[...]
