more welcome rain

Coco turns 12 today, happy birthday Coco!!

I spent the morning cleaning out the freezer to post, moving my car back inside along with 2 flats of beer left outside ??, tree inspections as per the Prince's research..

the leaves may have been touched by frost but the trees are definitely different health.. the far south one worse each year ;(

Then just before lunch Britt and I went out to ride Bird and Switch. It was a lovely sunny 19.

Time for Britt to shower up for work at 3. Shaina and Brad stopped out after her shift ending at 2. She and I went out now 20 degrees, this time I took Daisy, she KD first for a conditioning ride taking Baby along for part of it. She did very well then we went back to practice in the paddock. Not complaining in the least.. we got rained out, we tried to wait it out in the shelter but it looked socked in after 10 minutes so we bolted to the barn, unpacked and released them.

Brad was sweet enough to hold poor Coco who had her worst nightmare on her bday. They loaded up and headed back to the city going to a comedy show. The rain continued until after 5 bringing down 4/10ths and leaving a gorgeous double rainbow!

 to the SE

 and to the west.. still raining with sun

 then to the east!!

Not long after it let up, our cannabis order was delivered! I slurped back my oil and Diego chowed down his pellets like a champ. Lola who is ailing from a torn dew claw said no thanks. Now to see about the fat pony but I think she will eat it and the bowl served in ;) It seems I was mistaken.. but the other 3 nearby hoovered down the remainder. Think it is an acquired taste for some.

Sheldon was home at 7, just in time for the roasted chicken spread I cooked up for supper. Served with roasted veggies and fresh Parmesan, hot naan bread, sweet potatoes, corn on cob, gravy and a quinuoa/wild rice mixture it was so yummy, perfect for a rainy day feast. Britt enjoyed her share when home from her 9 pm shift close. Sheldon was late today after stopping at the bank for an appointment then the rental house. Seems the renter has no pressure in kitchen but everywhere else, only changes was he installed a new faucet. Well I am not a plumber but that said to me that it had to be the issue. Sure enough it seems the son of renter did some McGyver crap and the new faucet is plugged with rubber scrapings!! AH duh, not technically our problem, replace with the working original buddy ;)
