Lots of Stuff

What better way to start the morning than to have one of your favorite horses grazing right outside your window.  

 When E leaves for school in the mornings she leaves the "Hank gate" down.  I think Hank knows her schedule and seizes the opportunity to visit the yard.  He is an expert at jumping the cattle guard.  I'm so lucky to have such a smart and athletic horse.

 Looks like he is going to be the guinea pig for my next 4-H meeting.  I have a vet friend that will be talking about equine dentistry and will demonstrate teeth floating on Hank.  Lucky boy!

 We also woke up to a beautiful fog in the valley.

 And look what showed up in the mail!  A lovely purple saddle blanket to match E's purple show shirt.  Well it started out as E's but apparently size small was too big so I have inherited it.  I think it will look smashing on Brother.  Now I can't decided between black or tan pants.  Any thoughts?  It might just depend on what they have at Goodwill.

And lastly, I took a chance and bought a couple of scarfs off of Ebay from China.  They actually came and look nice.

I was initially thinking of the Secret Santa for the Saddle Club but I think I can figure out how to wear this myself.  And a bonus, it was only $3.00.
