a little work, a little walk

We took advantage of a break in the wet spring weather, and restocked some hay. We are back to using small bales. It was pretty comical loading them onto the big forks, but it worked. My brother-in-law came over just in time to see us "adjust" the load to the right size, by 'er dropping a few in the beginning. I was waiting for the bale on the right to land in the sh** pit, but thankfully it didn't. Had to laugh when I saw his face peeking through the cab window in this photo:

We also took Cierra for her first walk all the way up the path, along with Harmony. Things are greening up. It made me really miss Koda & Nemo, and our Fall trail rides on the farm... 

Cierra did extremely well, and so did Harmony. I am sure they'll be many more walks, with just the two of them. When we got back, I handed Cierra over to Brad for a bit more work in the arena. Here she is wondering what I am doing on the other side of the fence...

...and getting one of many hugs, she's such a good girl...

Cierra is certainly a pretty girl! The hay looks good and I wish I could get that much in my barn.

Thanks, Cierra is pretty sweet. We can't fit much hay in our space either, makes for a lot of trips.
