Farriery

John stopped by this morning, with Linda along, to look at Tess' chipped forehoof. He smoothed the damage out with a rasp and said it should be oK as long as it doesn't crack or chip again. We're applying Rainmaker daily to try to prevent that.

Got back from work breakfast just in time to help Gary load all his stuff into his car so he could take off for his hurdy gury players meet in Indiana. He won't be back until Sunday night late.

Finished up the grocery shopping for next week, so now I don't have to go anywhere this weekend unless something irresistible shows up. Ha. Maybe I'll just stay in and read. The weather today certainly was conducive to that.

I guess my garden's not had that much attention over the last fortnight...

It turned into a weekend of sunshine and downpours here, which made the garden rather squelchy. The priority task is mowing the lawn, but it needs at least a couple of dry days before it'll be dry enough...

I guess we'll get the same sort of thing in a week or two, but by then mowing will be hard work...
