Both horses blanketed without bloodshed or teardrops. Bring on the winter storm!

Living my best this morning. Up early. Coffee up. Now hanging on Lakota while the girls munch some good grass. Have flushed a couple of fawns from their hiding spots. Decided not to saddle up for a legit ride; super overcast and spitting rain. Or trying.

Horses, deer and pup... peaceful Sunday morning. Enjoying the warm fuzzies that linger from a really nice date yesterday.
