Curly's doing better and better...

Just a quick hoof-health update for those interested. Curly is doing so much better that we even considered saddling him up today for an easy walk around the covered arena at the fairgrounds. The dirt is soft and rock-free there, a necessity at the moment. He spent three hours out in the pasture yesterday and did fine. No increase in his lameness - in fact his soreness seemed to be almost completely gone today. He is definitely bored. For the first time in weeks, he tried to escape from his run when he saw that the gate was open. A good sign, I think.

But E. decided she really needed to do homework, so Curly's fun was delayed.

R. had a lesson on Q and did great. It was a wonderful evening at the horse barn.
