Tonight or Early Tomorrow Morning
Jewels’ milk hit the threshold: 6.2 pH. So there is no turning back! It will be tonight or tomorrow morning. Sadly, I will be leaving for a 5.5 hour drive over the mountains (Cascades) for our grandson Levi’s graduation. So even if she foals, I may not learn about it to pass the good newsContinue reading “Tonight or Early Tomorrow Morning”
Hopefully Today!
No foal yet and her due date was last night (well, June 5). All that fussing and pre-labor for nothing! But here is the pH strip (as if that means anything these days). I’m thinking it only gives false hope. LOL However, joy of joys, Jewels has suddenly turned into what Kristel calls “the triangle.”Continue reading “Hopefully Today!”
Missing Scene from The Last Ride
I’ve been cleaning out Andi’s blog (pages and posts) and goodness! There are “lost” pages that I don’t think anyone has ever scene. They are buried amidst the 600+ posts and pages scattered everywhere, and they have no “category” so it’s hard to find them. For example, this is on a page and it shouldContinue reading “Missing Scene from The Last Ride”
Circle C Kick-off Art and Writing Contest

You should have received an email today (Monday) that confirms all entries are safe and on their wayContinue reading “Circle C Kick-off Art and Writing Contest”
It’s Getting Closer!
Just thought everyone might get a kick out seeing Jewels progress toward foaling. She is officially “due” June 4 (this coming Wednesday), but Kristel is not sure which of the five days of breeding was the day she “took.” With a mare, it’s easy to know exactly (within 48 hours) when she will foal (unlikeContinue reading “It’s Getting Closer!”
Kody Leaves the Ranch . . .
. . . And we are not sorry to see him go. Well, I should amend that. He was a precious, sweet, gentle little man as a foal. He still is very nice, smart as a whip, but way too tall (going onto 16hh) for Kristel to work with him without feeling unsafe. She stillContinue reading “Kody Leaves the Ranch . . .”

Name the Filly!
It’s that time again! Jewels is getting ready to foal (due June 6), and my daughter asked me to put on another naming contest. This little girl needs a name. We know she’s a filly, both by an ultrasound and the fun “nail” test. She has a 1 in 4 (25%) chance of being oneContinue reading “Name the Filly!”
May What Am I? #26 Winner Update
I can always tell when the mystery item is a tough one. I get fewer entries. This month I only received 86 entries, and of those 86, only 54 guessed “MUSHROOM” correctly. Out of those, Random.org landed on Ryleigh (#44) as the winner. Ryleigh has 48 hours to claim her prize. UPDATE: The original winner,Continue reading “May What Am I? #26 Winner Update”
