Wild weather...

It snowed last week! On Thursday, Friday and Saturday the lovely white flakes fell from the sky for hours and hours each day. Too bad the ground was too warm for it to really stick - we only saw an accumulation of a couple of inches overall. Plus on Saturday, everything froze which made driving a real adventure. Thank goodness for curbs and empty roads! E. and I almost went into a ditch when we drove out to the barn to take care of our horses. The snow did make everything look so pretty out at the barn, though.

Yesterday a warm wind came through and melted everything. It's been blowing so hard that I'm surprised we haven't lost a few tree branches. We did have to cancel our hay run; the rain was falling sideways and I wasn't about to drive the truck with a semi-stable load in this craziness!

Curly is beginning to heal noticeably in both back hooves now. He still limps a bit but we can see definite improvement. I was teasing E. last night that she might get to ride her horse next year. :-)
