well exercised

me, that is, if not molly so much.

muck out etc; poo pick field; then joint effort removing the remains of some haylage, wewon't do that one again and now see why YM & YO don't like that!  

finally took molly out for longlining inthe field.  not for too long, probably no moare than about 15 minutes, ensuring i had control and direction. Charlie spent the time running about, or standing at the gate as if we'd suddenly reappear!  not sure he quite twigs that the mare walking round the field on longlines is his friend who hasn't gone far...

then after tea we went back into Durham with the new camera on different settings, think we've got much better pics.

so shattered again as well!  but a nice change from our normal weekend nights!

Caught the light show pictures below as well. It must have been beautiful.

Funny how Charlie doesn't seem to connect Molly in work with Molly his pasture pal. *lol*

Cleaning up old hay from a field/mud, even a stall is never an easy job. It just wads up into big forkfuls of heavy stuff....*sigh*

Busy weekend! I love yard chores but they are knackering.

I'm not sure if horses are capable of such rationale (sp?) when a fieldmate goes off to work but mine certainly falls into the camp of standing like a sentinel/ running back and forth along the fenceline....it is tiresome!
