longlining out...

up the park, and through a gate, and up a track where i had to lead (something in the wood, and wanting to go back, bit of each!) and through another gate and along a field line to another gate and across the Harbour House drive and along beside it... then got to the gelding's field for HH and they all came charging up to the fenceline and molly thought this was all a bit much (or a bit interesting, LOL) so i led the rest of the way back down the park to the stable...

on the way passed a fair few lambs - one so new we walked past the afterbirth!

it's steep going up! have to angle it to reduce the steepness!

I was pleased i was able to do any of it, as i arrived in a flurry of rain that i thought was going to set in, but happily didn't!

and 2 bags of feed arrived at home - from the pure horse feed co, was anticipated to arrive tomorrow...

Well done you, sounds like a fair walk. Glad the weather was agreeable for the duration :)

Lucked out with the weather!!

Good workout for you and Molly too. *G* She should settle down to some of the distractions eventually. I hope sooner than later.

I bet she thought it was interesting (the geldings) not scary. Who ever heard of a mare not putting a gelding in his place!
