After some big snow, I woke up today, to find it on the melt. Lovely though it is, riding is an issue in this slippery stuff. The horses were in fine fettle, and very hungry despite the new Hay bales put in the feeders yesterday.
Extra helpings were in order, so they got a little more Oats. They looked remarkably clean, amazing how snow does that. Temps were up to +3 this morning, so all in all, a really warm day! The forecast is for rain, as a warm front pushes in, we already have Flood warnings out for the South of the country!
Even Jacob was hungry, both ponies have good fat reserves, but Jacob is`nt so lucky, he`s just out for the day!
Already the thaw is working its Magic, so we`ll await the rain and more floods.
Looks remarkable similar to our part of the world. We're expecting rain come monday SIGH
ReplyDeleteThe same is going on here too...I'd prefer to stay with the snow...and clean horses and dogs ;~)
ReplyDeleteMee too, trouble is, the Mud! Its raining now, and just been to look at the girls, mud already.
DeleteStill too warm and nice here in the high country. 64 again today. Have worn my heavy coat one time this winter.
ReplyDeleteThats warm, mind you, the temp for tomorrow is set for 50F, and thats getting warm here!
DeleteOh I cant remember the last time the temp was above freezing here, maybe back in October?? Oh I cant wait till we get the thaw, even if it means mud I am so sick of winter.
ReplyDeleteThats the thing, if we get too much of one thing, we get tired of it, but for us here, this snow has been a welcome change from rain, shame its coming back.
DeleteOh, my, I'm sorry you're going to be floating away again. Float west!
ReplyDeleteThats kind of you, I will be floating, or flying in June to Montana! Two weeks at Billings.
DeleteGosh it all looks chilly ....... I' sitting here at ten pm typing and it's 25C so quite a bit warmer and we are putting in hay each day......another 500 tomorrow night. Stay safe and warm and don't slip in that melting snow
ReplyDeleteWe will, pleased your haying is going well.
