I am a little delayed in posting this note so I'll just go from today's date.It is June 17th and the horses arrived last weekend. My grandaughter Isabelle and I went to the Diss Hill Farm (Jessie's home that fosters Sadie's Place horses as well). Jana met us there and we loaded Jane on to the trailer without too much ado. Wyatt had already been loaded on from Jana's place at Storeybook Stables.
After a short drive we arrived at our lane leading down to the cottage. The summer fields for both Wyatt and Jane. As you can see here Isabelle didn't waste any time getting acquanted with the two. The shelter is a much better setup than last year's. It was extremely important to me that I provide adiquate shelter for these two for when they wanted to get away from the heat or rain. It is also important that they have a place to be cross-tied while they get their hooves worked on... Wyatt especially.
Jane apparently has had a good long run of being treated well so she isn't too much of a worry for me. I'll start working her in the upper part of the yard once the hay is cut in that area. Mostly I want to get to know her better and get her riding. The upper field is going to much more suited for that because the property, while being very pastural, is also very steep.
