Meteorologists claim our winter has been milder than normal, but there were some rough and wild wintry days when Remy and Blue might have argued with that:
Rosella forsook the big salt block for the horses' small one, while Remy began walking out to the cows' big salt block. I guess it's like dogs always wanting each other's food, even though they're identical:
A cute pose by Remy:
Every thaw, however temporary, sends both little horses out into the field to search for edible grass:
And they always came back into the barn to "help" me clean the floor and put down new bedding hay. They want to be a part of things:
After an overnight snowstorm, I could tell where the horses had walked by following their tracks. They sure covered a lot of ground:
They didn't spend many nights in their stall, but when we had freezing rains, I let them in. Oddly, they weren't very happy about it:
"I stick my tongue out at your stupid stall. I'm a macho outdoors horse:"
Most days, however, looked like this - contented cattle and miniature horses, quietly eating hay:
Blue has always been shy, but lots of affectionate attention has brought him around:
As for Remy, he always come running for attention:
Winter is ending and we'll all be glad to bid it farewell:
