Good night Hazel!

[TrueColours]

That is such a bummer about Giana! Poor girl ...

Thanks for the info as well Gen on the EVA situation. I gather when I do GG I just have to be cautious about him coming close to the pregnant girls for that 21 day time frame?

GREAT pictures as well - but that is SO weird - why do CA babies have so much fur?!    Heck - my babies have less and its COLD here!!!  Is Bodhi a Redwine baby? I REALLY like him!

[glenhillfarm]

My babies are so fuzzy this year.  We had that early rain so maybe it triggered a coat alert with them.
Bodhi is a Popeye K.

[spacely]

My filly is really, really fuzzy this year too. Must be the weird weather.

[Apple Meadows]

  Girls...I just had to play some more with pictures.  I really liked this one of Lil E and Bodhi so I cropped it more and changed the look.



Oops!  I missed saying good night to Hazel.

Gen ...You're welcome and I'm glad everyone's enjoying our pictures.  Please wish Giana well for me for friday's surgery if you talk to her.

Denise...Beg to differ...that was a really interesting story and again, your passion is right out there.  I think it would be a very good decision for you.  Fabulous news about your second Dad and we'll all hope for even better days to come.

What a beautiful afternoon it turned into here.  I went grocery shopping which takes me through "downtown" and all the flags were up looking oh, so pretty.  The Boy Scouts here put out flags for all the national holidays.  There's probably about 200 flags that are placed about 10 feet apart along the streets.  I came back to take a walk around the property and through our "sycamore park" in the front yard.  I love, love, love to walk in the leaves.  Bryan doesn't get it.  The minute they build up, he's out there raking and bundling them.    I forgot to tell all of you about the aunties' apartment.  It has changed leaps and bounds since my last visit and it has turned out fantastic.  Gen's hubby has done such a beautiful job up there.  Only problem with that is that probably "aunties apartment" doesn't enter into his idea of what it's for.  Men!

Evening all.

First I know I am to late, Sweet dreams Hazel, catch you for tea tomorrow.

Pam and Gen LOOOOVE the PICS!!  Yes the babes are growing so fast and looking like little toddlers and not babies.

Rachel did I miss something about Kole leaving you for KAthryns??? did we find out what is wrong with him or is it for another reason he will be gone?

Denise, great news on dad2  hope he continues to improve, and on such a special day for a special person.  Jingles and prayers continued form me.  Your news also sounds interesting and a tough choice.  I know you will make the right one.   

Stacey, we have been having 70's for the most of fall up until the last 2 days (from IDA rain falls first days below 70).  All my guys are fuzzy for no Reson that I can think of, so I guess they are telling me this is going to be a COLD winter, even though Fall has been really
warm.

Abby I think you have fighting words for Pam and Callie trying to keep Zach with them.

[GracefulHano]

Work has been crazy the past few days, so a quick pop in before bed.

Pam, you'll be hard pressed to pry Zach out of my hands!!!  Nice try though!!

The babies are all so big looking!  They make me thinkg Charlie is a dwarf!!!  About how tall are the babies Gen?  I have a feeling that if I think Charlie is a monster, I have somethin' else coming!!!

Have a great night.  LOVE the photos!

[blacklabs]

Checking in been very busy with work and the council.

Evenin' all! I am so darn tired from work! I have had quite busy days! Yikes~! Sick sick people in our ICU.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the photos! It's so fun to see all the babies so big! They are all so stinkin' gorgeous~!!!

Denise, wow, what a tough decision to make...

Judy, glad you are feeling betteR! Continue to move towards that direction!!

Mandy... yes, you could have strep without a fever, fever is just an inflammatory type response from your body to kill off the bacteria... (mind you I have been drinking for 3 hours since I got home from work.. So if I am whacky.. ignore ;-))... But your body can definitely fight it sans the fever... You could also very easily just have a virus that is irritating your throat... or something else... Just stay hydrated and humidified

So... I had a couple of photos I wanted to post, but I think when you shrink them down.. you won't be able to see the detail... When I got home from work I found a .... hmm... "collection" for lack of a better term that O'Neil had made... I don't even know where he found all of his belongings... Well, I will try to post it small... I doubt you will see all the detail of what he gatherered. Silly dog! .. I dare you to see if you can identify all in the picture... Too bad I left the large metal outdoor lamp cover out of it... But there are still several items... Mind you, NONE of these items were in the lawn proper to start the day, sunroom yes, some... and some... I have NOT A CLUE where he found them... WIERD DOG!!

So in other news... I got some jaw dropping news a couple of minutes ago.... Apparently Annie's "herd" was running a muck today, galloping around... as always... this round 3 out of the 5 had fallen down.. They go galloping towards the open gate to run towards the barn... and Annie decides, that INSTEAD of goinng THROUGH the OPEN gate... She should just la de dah ... jump the 5' barbed wire fence.. Because she felt like it... Clears it... and goes on with life... Some of the workers at the barn witnessed it all.. They just about died thinking she was going through it... But nope... over she went...  I just stammered when I heard the news... That mare... *shakes head* but I must say I am also thoroughly impressed with her as well... Goofy mare! And she got assessed by the saddle fitter today, and she just needs a little different saddle pad to make things work... Guess she knew the chiro was also coming on Friday, so she decided to go pop her back over a few... That mare... Gotta love her!

Very good article!  Personally, I think they might encounter a problem with loading to the van, too....but I could be wrong.  I also don't know that I'd be pushing him to race.  It was so completely obvious before the blindfold that something was seriously wrong, and I'm not sure the horse actually WANTS to race.  I haven't paid attention, does anyone know if he's still intact?  A new career may be in order....but that's a non-race person thinking, too.

Last year the ponies fuzzed up big time, and started it the first of August.  We had the mildest winter....this year they waited until mid-September and have fuzzed up decently.  It's already been colder, but they're not as thick.  Well, they're getting thicker, and doing a more uniform job, so....who knows?

I'm crashing for the night.  Been a long couple of days and the lack of sleep has caught up.  The good news is the hard work paid off.  Now I just need to tighten the paper up and it'll be good.  I don't ever expect full scoring, but at least I feel like it'll be a solid "A" paper...which is good.  I'll catch up with you Aunties tomorrow

[kenike]

LOL Megan!!  A true hunter!  You know they jump 4-5' barbed wire fences while on the chase in Australia, right? 

I'll have to go look at the O'Neil pictures now...

[blacklabs]

Yes Denise he still had his balloons. Coth has a thread and some say he was lame all week before the race and he was letting everyone know he didn't want to race. Yes the ride home is not going to be easy on him if and when they get him loaded.


SCM can you teach him to collect jewelry from the neighbor hood?   so cute. My whiskers  does that and when you move a chair or dresser she has tons of things behind it.

[sweetchestnutmare]

EEK! She shouldn't do that though Denise!! She is a homebred TB that never even raced! I just started stuttering when I heard the news... Obviously between the chiropractic work and the under saddle work... She is feeling and performing QUITE well in several aspects of life! I kind of wish I had seen it... But on the other hand... I'd like to keep those 10 years of my life from being shaved off from a heart attack...

[kenike]

Thanks, Kim.  I guess that means COTH is back up!!  I need to over there....
