all 9 horses trimmed in 24 hours

Friday up and at it, girls off to school and work early so I got busy and trimmed the last 3 horses by noon. They too took turns mowing areas for me.
 this rogue mower did not make for the neatest clean cut though :-)
 and he wanders to deep areas
 perhaps they should be on opposite sides looking at bellies ;-)
here is the herds youngest and oldest members, 30 years apart and both from our good friend Jacqueline. Switch is our 2 year old Australian Stock horse and Julio the resident senior at 32!
 yes this handsome boy is 32 and loving life
 Switch comes a little to fast when called making for a blurry photo
 and here is the Quarter horse posse yearning to come out and mow the yard
I had 2 ladies turn into no shows for rustic decor pickup but oh well.
 Next on the list, mow the entire yard and gate area. I LOVE the look of fresh mowed lawn and even though this is hay grass, new seed and weeds, it stills looks best cut!




 and wait.. some carrots are finally growing
Now after the blustery dust bowl caused by mowing  and the 9 horses trimmed in 24 hours including sleep time, it was time to enjoy a nice warm shower and cold beer. Isn't there no better feeling than a shower after a hot sweaty dusty day??
Just out of the shower the chair lady text she was dropping off the 3rd matching chair in 4 minutes! Now after all the trimming mowing with a hot shower and cold beer I felt like a wet noodle but eventually I headed out to "condition" the dogs.  Diego was his full gusto self but Coco was like walking an anchor, continuously 500 feet behind requiring coaxing, geez dog. Guess waking her from a deep slumber and the hot 24 weather was too much. I however loved it.. again minus the "less than last night" mosquitoes!
The established for 1 full year? grass along drive is coming in so well and looks awesome with recent rain and todays trim! Sadly it is dark now by 8:30 but sunsets are still amazing! Britt worked AGAIN after school getting home until after 9 to relax and read another book.
my rest was disturbed with what sounded like a bird with a broken wing in the soffit. I even video taped to send to Sheldon so he would believe me and check it out when home. WTH, how would it get stuck in there?
