Sam, Raven and Friend....

[~Sam~]

How-dee !!! I hope you all had a real good holiday. We did. Did a lot of work outside, and had time to party hardy too.

The new neighbors are settling in quite nicely. I had the two older children and their parents with me out in the barn on Friday learning to milk my goats. It's funny about children... they just won't let you be a hermit. When I go across the road to the barn, I hear from down the road a little voice saying; "Hi Marsha." Hard to keep a grouchy face on when you have little children wanting you to smile. Oh well.

Anyways... I called a friend to go riding with me today and we took a couple pics. Here they be....

Just a Test Post here folks. I finally broke down and went cable. I tried to post in another forum and it wouldn't recognize me. so here goes again.

(edit: Well that worked. Wonder why it wouldn't take the previous post?)

AW beautiful pics Sam.

Looks like Raven is part HAM...what a pose.

He's a real Pip, Teepi. A real Pip. He wants to know about, and get into everything you're doing. Kenny and I were out by the bridge, filling in what the flood water took away... we couldn't convince him otherwise that he shouldn't be right there between us, shoulder-to-shoulder-to-shoulder. I had to chase him away by waving the shovel around... and even then he came right back to look closely and sniff at what we were doing.

I tell him; "You da Man, Raven, You da Man," when he follows me across that bridge all by his lonesome. (An oddity for horses to do by themselves.) And when I do, he puts his head down and bucks and frolics about. He's a very happy horse spirit these days.

Kenny calls out to him when he gets home: "Hey, Frisky Boy!" And Raven runs to the end of the pasture and back again to show just how frisky he is.

All in all, he's one damned nice horse. In the pasture and under saddle.

How you be? Glad to finally see your name up there when I logged on. I've been thinking about you and how I haven't made it out to the workroom to pick out that glass yet. But the butterfly is still in one piece. Well, like I always say; "Everything in its own time."

Talk At'cha Soon,
