While I love to travel, there is no place like home! Gary and Taryn did so well while I was gone, but were so excited to welcome me home again.
Since all of us had this Saturday free we decided to make it a work day for our horses at the Eide barn. There was cleaning and repairs to get done, and we need to plan for a new stall in the barn.
John, bless his heart, was able to help Gary with the construction part of the work and they fixed the overhang, gates, doors, lights etc. Taryn and I did the general cleaning, sorting and some fence work.
We did work out a stall plan with Mike and Marti, but that will need to be done another day.
We kept watching Emma out in the field and could see she had a limp. Later we all walked out there and took a closer look at her hoof. Her front left hoof was obviously sore and warm. I called her farrier and asked her to come check it out at her earliest convenience.
We are not sure why this is still an issue. She has been on strict pasture rest since we noticed bruising back in June and it seemed to be under control. Taryn was in tears right away fearing the worst. I had to tell her to get a grip.
John and Kay came over and we made hamburgers on the patio for dinner. It was fun to show them all my Minneapolis mementos.
Tomorrow Kay and Bria move down to Children's Hospital in Seattle to go thru some physical therapy Bria needs for her health.
