Rainy Nights

Last night was Curly's second night in the pasture. No big deal, really....except that we had a huge rainstorm come through around 8:00 p.m. with thunder and lightening.

Being the mom-type that I am, I immediately began to worry about our big guy, wondering if he was wet and shivering in the storm. But then I reminded myself that he has a nice thick fur coat and besides, it wasn't that cold outside (about 40 degrees). I had a hard time resisting my urge to rush out to the barn and check up on him, though....

When we got out to see him today he seemed quite content - and dry. :-) The pasture he's in had a little more mud than yesterday, but still much less than his old run.

And the barn manager assured me that she will put his blanket on him if she thinks it's too cold for the boys in the fields.

So now I'll be able to sleep at night.....
