My bunny is bigger than your bunny.
Jaz and I went walkabout down our boring old road, which is never boring to Jaz. He always seems to find any multitude of horse-eating things to keep it lively. We had several "conversations" about which direction we were going.
I had planned on riding Poco, too, but 'twas not to be. While riding Jaz, I discovered that I somehow lost a Blevins slider from my right stirrup leather. For you English folks, the Blevins is how you shorten or lengthen your stirrups on (most) Western saddles. The slide is like the keeper on a belt that holds it in position. Without that piece, the stirrup won't stay in position. I was already well down the road when I realized it was gone. I mean, how does that even happen? The way they are designed, it would have had to break in order for me to lose it. It's impossible for it to fall off. I had to get off several times to adjust the stirrup length, and I finally just rode without stirrups. A trip to Paul Taylor is on my list this week.

All so pretty-horses and property. Just starting to get green trees here too, ahhhh finally. BUT both hail and sunshine yesterday, Southern Oregon wacky weather.
Happy Easter!!!!!
Porta potties are very, very scary. Must be the height. None of the horses I've been around have been bothered by dogs. Isn't that weird?
Except for when our tiny poodle thought the horse was just another person and jumped on Cibolo's leg, was totally in his blind spot and he was like "WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?"
Nice bunny. Must be the carrots you're giving him that got him growing so big...
Jaz is so cute in his bunny ears!
Looks like you got a lot accomplished! I wish I could say the same!
Aww love the ears on Jaz !!!
Hope you had a great weekend and your week goes by first.
That is one clean water tank. Mine usually have so much algae in them that no amount of bleaching and scrubbing can save them.
LOL pretty funny last caption!
Hondo, btw is in BFE:
SW of San Antonio.
Middle of nowhere. Flat as a pancake.
Porta potty's are only scary when you walk by them just as someone pops outta it!!! That can get your heart jumping LOL
Well, at least it wasn't horse-eating grass! hehe!
And wow, it sure is green. No real green growth around here yet. Lots of wind, but it's been in the 70's. I'll take it!
Oooh! Your house is so pretty! Weinie Boy! That always cracks me up. lol!
