Saturday's Horses And More * New Neighbors Now Have 3 Horses + Goats

Last edited Sat Jul 18, 2026, 07:49 AM - Edit history (1)

Now all three of their horses are here. The latest arrival is named Murphy and she has three white socks.

Pistol came trotting in from the field to see what was going on.

Satine took her time.

Maddie checked out our neighbor's goats.

I don't know their names, but these are them.

Meanwhile, Maddie and Pete stuck close together. Neither seemed too
excited by goats.

Laurie has finished hooking up an underground water system to bring
water to frost-free hydrants. Now water is easily accessible to horses.

Maddie and Pete, heading out to pasture after dinner, while Shadow walks back to the barn.

Dinner at sunset.

I wasn't able to see the photos yesterday but thought it might be my computer. Thanks so much for your wonderful photos, George McGovern. Smiles are few and far between these days. Much appreciated.
