Yesterday we got our new goats...Libby and Shilo. They are a mother/daughter pair of Nubians. Libby is 6 and Shilo is 11 weeks old. Shilo is very shy so we are working on socializing her. Libby is wary but will let us pet her.
Mom and I went for a ride Sunday afternoon. She started out on Smoke and I was on Bannie.....That didn't last long!!! Smoke started acting up alittle and Mom didn't like it so we switched...I got on Smoke and taught her few things. She is the type of horse...coming from a ranch...that needs a specific job at all times. She does not like to "play" which is mostly what we do. So to give her the job she needs...as we walk down the trail, I'll lay my leg on her and ask her to turn, to bend, to move over, to stop. This gets her mind on her job and then she'll behave. With her, you can't ask her to do something....you have to tell her to do it, then she'll obey. Well, we rode around for awhile, then we went over to that big hill and mom got videos of me galloping Bannie up it. That was really fun!!
Yesterday and today we will be at the auction hall working. It started sleeting yesterday afternoon and then turned to snow. We got several inches and now it's windy and cold.
I have one chapter left to go one the second book....I'm alittle hung up on it right now!
Okay, gotta get out to chores!
