Say Ahhh ~

With spring around the corner, it was time to make our yearly trek out to Nebraska Equine for Farah's teeth float.  Traffic was light, we arrived on time & Farah walked right in like a champ.

Say Ahhh..

I always try to watch her weight closely.  Even though we measure out her feed in Ziplocs for the barn staff - it's not the same as when we did it ourselves.  Dr. Black put the tape on her & guess what?  She's right at the top end of her weight range at 1,070 lbs.  Perfect as far as I'm concerned - since hopefully we'll be coming into riding season before too long.

 It was nice to hear that all her teeth look good, the two problem areas were not any worse & all her teeth are solid.  There were a couple small hooks - again in the usual areas - but nothing worrisome.  Since I made the mistake last year of having her vaccinated on the same day - this year Dr. Black said we'll wait until she's moved & do them the first of April.

  Google maps took us back home by way of the far side of the river, so we ended up south of Farah's stable.  I drove on home, unloaded the gold girl & let her graze while we waited for Butch.  It actually worked out well, since it gave me more time to keep an eye on her & make sure she was back to normal.

Sinking in~

We stayed around the perimeter of the yard, as much as I want to ride, the ground is still so very soft & wet.  Maybe the stiff winter will be over & we'll have a nice dryer spring!  Regardless, I hope to be able to do some road & field riding soon.
