I had emailed this lady named Ann who's blog is Smells Horsy and I emailed her pictures of the horr frost (Not sure the proper spelling on it and I don't want to offend anyone) of our water bowls being completely frozen over, solid ice blocks which we have to go and pour hot water and chip away at everyday. It's just life where we live and our horses don't get treated any differently they are used to it and love it. They are so frisky in the snow and it makes you cringe thinking of them on the ice but they still run and buck and kick and wouldn't trade any minute of it. I also think they love it because on our farm, they are basically hay busters all winter long, they do nothing but eat and eat and eat and then they forage through the snow for more to eat! It's great! The only one on our farm to be babied (and when I say our farm, I mean my dad's who's been there for 40 years still keeps my horses for me since I live in the city now) was my old horse who we had to put down about a year and a half ago. He was so old and sick near the end, couldn't keep weight on, couldn't really grow his full winter coat that he went into the barn with a blanket every single night all year long and let me tell you none of our horses have ever spent more than a night in the barn before so he was so spoiled but when you've been so great to your owners for 15 years (he was 28 when we bought him and we were only the 2nd owners) you deserve every minute of pampering/babying. He was my forever horse and I can never replace him! Love hearing about your mustangs, keep up the great work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14868403.post-32654416953079721122008-02-23T19:04:00.000-08:002008-02-23T19:04:00.000-08:00Nikki - I hope you have a smooth moving experience...Nikki - I hope you have a smooth moving experience.

We don't really get autumn and spring, we have 9 months of gorgeous summer and 3 months of slightly wet winter, with a couple of weeks of dodgy weather in between. Sounds tough, huh?<BR/><BR/>I start riding lessons on Tuesday! I rode all during my teens [which were, um, a while back now] so I'm VERY excited.<BR/><BR/>I have two Maine Coon Cats, who are huge and very fluffy; I have considered clipping them for summer as the amount of fur they drop could account for half Australia's total wool clip!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14868403.post-10489488585735000862008-02-22T14:16:00.000-08:002008-02-22T14:16:00.000-08:00I'm from Regina, Saskatchewan Canada. Our weather...I'm from Regina, Saskatchewan Canada. Our weather has been typical Saskatchewan weather. Tuesday all day and night it was <BR/>-32C (-26F) and today it's a balmy -9C (15F) and with this weather today guarteened there will be people BBQ, wearing t-shirts loving every minute of it. This is not my favorite time of the year at all. I do ski-doo so that sort of makes up for it. But this year was a really cold year and just too cold to be outside much. We also get wind chills on top of those temperatures so at times we had -37C (-35F) with windchills of -50C (-58F) basically skin freezes instantly. I love Spring and summer (love seeing all the new babies and plants) and it always amazes me how warm spring always feels and how cold the same temperature is in the fall! As for plans for the summer...nothing really planned as of yet, hopefully do a lot more riding and a lot more photography.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the good blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14868403.post-83699778408224786972008-02-22T11:30:00.000-08:002008-02-22T11:30:00.000-08:00Hi Andrea!

I live in CO but am soon moving (in 2 weeks) to MN 20 mins from Fargo, ND. We did not get to enjoy the lunar eclipse due to cloud coverage. The weather in CO has been in the 40s and breezy at times. My fav seasons are Spring and Summer since you can do more things outside and it stays light longer. My big plans this summer are to work on more ground training with my horses and I am going to shadow a horse trainer and maybe start working on saddle training Tabasco and Shoni!

I hope you've been able to enjoy it (and not just when untangling Henry from the fence). I guess it's better to have nice weather than rain in any circumstances though.Andrea -Mustang Sagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00576342393431178404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14868403.post-49112471200431620352008-02-21T19:27:00.000-08:002008-02-21T19:27:00.000-08:00John, you dork, you're not a virgo.
