Sunshine at Last

Today we finally had a full day of sunshine, started out just awesome no wind and blue skies but as the day wore on it stayed sunny but the wind got up and there was a bit of a chill in the air, but it was so nice to have that then the constant rain we have been having and the Mud!! drives you insane...Going for a ride and taking endless time time to brush off the mud then pick out the hoofs and once you out them back down they are just full again. Roll on summer!!!...Spring is certainly in the air though and we are all having to stuff outr horses with magnesium, as the grass sure is affecting there wee brains, my horse thinks that small birds are certainly very scarey at the moment and is Autumn is often seen doing a beautiful piaffe or Passage around the paddock at any time she thinks of an excuse to flounce around the paddock.  Today I moved a couple of pregnant mares next door to her and she was like oh please come see me i am really putting on a great show over here come on just look at me!! but to no avail being very heavily pregnant they were more intersted in the new grass in the paddock so she gave up and ate her Hay.  Have to say though, the magnesium is certainly working, she was like a donkey...
