Wow squinting, lovely bright sun this morning along with a cutting breeze.  Everything went well this morning.  Frodo, the halflinger pony, gave me a bit of exercise, chasing him round and round the sand ring, branishing a whip over my head, yelling and running to cut him off before he made a third loop around the ring. Whew, thank you Frodo. 

Hahaha Here is Frodo.  

Inquisitive pony

I wasted an hour yesterday, ductaping a ripped rainsheet and turning Jon out in it.  I was soooo proud of my mad repair skills.  Hours later when I returned to check on everyone, the blanket was in shreds... and now dirty.  Apparently ductape doesn't survive rolling vigorously  in the dirt.  So as my luck is consistent, I made it worse. Blanket now needs to be cleaned before being repaired properly.
