So I have to thank my readers out there for making this contest possible. A few of you told the folks over at Absorbine that my blog was one of your favorites (THANK YOU!) so they contacted me asking if I wanted to have a contest. The answer was easy…who wouldn’t want the chance to [...]

So Friday we got a really big rain storm complete with huge wind gusts and massive downpours. I knew that after what happened last weekend with the falling branches there was no way that Gen was getting turned out in that kind of weather. Luckily the Barn Owner played it safe and left Gen in [...]
Chore to Cherish

So I have had a pretty busy week this week. Nothing bad, just lots of stuff going on. I feel like I have not have 10 minutes to myself to just sit down and be still since last weekend! Last night I was starting to get tired. I have been having so much fun that [...]
Good Enough to Eat?

So they were running low on silent auction items this year for one of my GMO award banquets. As most of you know, I normally make some horse themed candies for my friends over the Christmas. I was asked to help out by donating a box of candy. Since I was going to take the [...]

So last Friday is was in the upper 60s and beautiful out. As most of you agreed it was plenty warm enough to give Gen a bath. By last Saturday the temperatures has dropped down to the 30s and we had stead winds of 30mph with consistent gusts over 60 mph!!! How crazy is that! [...]
Gen’s February Bath
Posted in Gennyral, Hill Farm, Horse, tagged Horse, horses on February 21, 2011 | 9 Comments »
So for the first time that I can remember it was warm enough in February to give Gen a bath! Since we have a hot water at Hill farm my rule for a bath is above 60 degrees and Sunny. When I saw a warm day coming up last Friday there was no way that [...]

It has been a windy weekend. Let me put it this way…winds are blowing at 30mph today and it feels like nothing. Gen wanted to wear his scarf so we had a little fun (see how he sparkles! I need to show you before and after pictures from his bath on Friday)
Gen is SOOOO Getting a Bath today…

I was watching the news this morning and the high today is going to be 65!!! We have hot water at the barn and I have a cooler for Gen if needed so I don’t care if there is still snow on the ground…someone is getting scrubbed! Even better…the temps will drop tonight back down [...]
The Lesson…

So let me start this post by saying that not a lot of you guessed correctly as to which “meal plan” was Gen’s! He was the one all the way to the right. F.F. stands for Farrier’s Formula and that and the wormer (which is a barn thing) are the only extra’s that my boy [...]
