wind - and quiet....

I think the people at my new yard are only there in the daytime..... another quiet night!

Molly got moved to another paddock this morning - still on her own, but MUCH closer to the other horses so she'll be a lot happier! quite a bit of space to herself, so she won't starve! That was because they had fencing people coming and they were to work on the quarantine paddock she had been in.

It was quite blowy tonight and I was unsure whether to do anything or not - not as sheltered as the last place - but decided to lunge again. had thought about the round pen, but the top rail is off adjacent to a field, so couldn't use it.

Then just fed and turned back out again.

All on my ownio...

I'm glad I made the decision to just do groundwork - she's still distracted by spotting other horses (there's some more than belong to someone else just over the hedge from the arena...) so it's as well to get her used to everywhere before doing anything more. anyway, the saddle is still at home waiting for a thorough clean.

then mowed the lawn when i got home....

I guess she'll be distracted for a few days to a couple of weeks Claire. Best to play safe for the moment.

Good idea to play it safe. Some horses take a week or so to settle in to a new place.

Hope the other people show up on the weekend so you can meet everyone.
