Kit Pharo

This was our first bull from Pharo Cattle Company in Colorado.We had him for 4 years so a lot of our replacement heifers were out of him. We sold him last week. He weighed 1845 pounds.

Nature's Garbage Disposal

Because we have a septic system we did not install a garbage disposal when we built our house. Therefore, we throw a lot of things over the fence.
It usually doesn't take long for a curious animal to come by. This goat had quite a feast.

Yard Ornament IV


I found a mate to my other gargoyle (May 27th post) at the Dollar Tree. I think he looks a little perturbed that the dead geranium blooms are falling on him.

Horse Show

V wanted to go to one more show before State so we found one about an hour and a half away that had both western and hunter classes.V did well, 2- 2nds,1- 3rd and 1- 4th.
Emily's day didn't go as well, 1- 4th, 1 -5th and 1- 6th.
The highlight for V was an open Go As You Please class with 11 entries where she placed 2nd and E didn't place.

Sleazy

I recently purchased two of these "Sleazy Sleepwear For Horses". One is for Pep to get her mane to lie flat and the other for Jessica to protect her braids at shows.Surprisingly, the horses don't seem to mind wearing them.
They were about $30 each. Just so you know our priorities, I can't remember the last article of clothing I bought for myself that was $30.

Apples

I harvested some of the apples today and made a batch of applesauce.
I got this tree at Lowe's and left the tag on it until it had fruit so I would not forget what it was. The label said golden delicious. So I still don't know what they are.
They did however make some good fried apple pies. But not as good as Grandma's were.

The Beach

Sorry for not posting recently. V, E and I ran down to the beach for a few days.I always love pictures of the sea oats.
The surf was calm Saturday and Sunday, but this morning was totally different. The waves were much rougher, the tide came in higher, and there was quite a lot of beach erosion.
M actually went out swimming in this today. He looked like a little cork bobbing around in a washing machine.
