Life On and Off an Acreage

In-sights into moving from an Acreage back to Town, plus a few things I find of interest.

Two things that horses are scared about:


1. Things that move
2. Things that don't move




Old enough to be eccentric, but not rich enough

A Lazy Wednesday



The leaves are really starting to turn colour and thin out. As long as there is some grass left, the horses are happy. It was my intent today to ride, but I looked at the grass and figured it was time for the last (I hope) cut of the year. It is not a small job and takes about 4 hours to do.


Alpine is turning into a real hayseed. All she needs is a straw hat. Nope, she'd probably eat it!





 Tucker is always looking for food, any food. There are two pastures full of grass, but she chooses to stretch my fence wires.

What else is there to do on a nice, sunny, almost fall day?

  1. Tucker must truly believe that the grass really is greener on the other side of the fence!

  4. Absolutely beautiful. Makes me miss mine so much. At least you have grass, many suffering from drought are wondering where the winter's feed will come from.

  6. Oh my goodness! Gorgeous, just gorgeous. I'm always tempted to buy a Morgan when I see Alpine. I had a half Morgan, half Arabian before I got married. The BEST horse ever! Yep, you're photos tempt me to relive my youth and just go for it!
