Didn't get a lot done horsewise today

But yesterday it was just brilliant....Lynn & I decided we would do some natural horsemanship with Danny and Gypsy...Lynn's friend Lissa (from USA) had come to visit, so she came along to watch, then Hana came and so did Jane...It was a gorgeous day and we could totally focus on what we were doing...Hana was such a treasure, when I couldn't get the sidestep going properly she showed me, and then a BFO happened, and we were sidesteeping properly...Lynn is also ready now too so will film our L1 next week and get it in by the end of July...Wooohooo I feel that I am now at the same stage I was at when I had Max...maybe even a little further on-and maybe much wiser (comes with age you see-hee hee). We had such a good time- next was the cuppa and chat which I also adore- these people are just so supportive and positive it really lifts your spirit incredibly...Thankyou!!!!  Then in the afternoon it was time to call the boys in for there nightime hay...Well my little Oscar was first in - he ate again from my hand and then I decided to just lean over the fence beside him, and he was completely relaxed...He faces up to me properly now whenever I approach him...With big soft eyes.- I put Gypsy and Sarg out to grass for the night and then I don't have to worry that Gypsy's making eyes at Arani....Marilyn and Elder sent me a photo of a darling little colt whose Mother died, he's only 6 months old and in need of a loving home...I may take him, once Arani goes to Lynn's it will have a big gap there. We'll see.
Today I didn't have much time at all with the horses except to put out hay and show Jane what we do when we bring them in.  Lynn beat me to do the cleanup this morning and she had been to work Arani again this afternoon...He is doing so well and Lynn's gentle and caring ways with them has won his heart already...Won't be long before he's off to her place- but will need to be gelded first...Hope this rain stops again soon.
