DT :>It sounds like you had a great time.  You got a whole week
DT :>in a row.
Isn't it amazing!  We get just that each year, if we're lucky.  We run our 
own business, so getting away is REALLY hard.  Add in the horses, dogs, cats, 
goats and getting everything organized is something else!  Lost my old 
housesitter (she decided to have another kid!), but found a new one who's 
just as good.
DT :>Because of the
DT :>grandkid last year we got our longest vacation in 11 years,
DT :>4 days in a
DT :>row.
Yuk!  You should be kinder to yourself!
DT :>weather man miss this time.  It was 74 and calm.  David
DT :>spent over an 1
DT :>1/2 using a shedding blade on Smokey.  He is beginning to
DT :>look pretty
DT :>good.
I don't get it...my horses are short of shedding, but haven't really started 
that god awful stuff yet.  I wonder if they knew the blizzard was 
coming...and I wonder if they know something else (g)!  It was 75 yesterday, 
but supposed to be in the 40's during the day for the next few days and down 
in the high 20's, low 30's at night.  Actually, I'm not complaining...there 
were bombadier squads of mosquitos in the paddock yesterday....geesh!!! 
Hopefully the cooler weather will get rid of them.
