At the barn #15 - What the 4th means to me...


Freedom.

Freedom from hunger - my lady brought me stacks of extra hay this morning as she is running the Water / Watermelon booth at the village 4th of July celebration and might be a bit late for my dinner.

Freedom from undue exertion as it is much too hot to trot around in circles and curlicues... although we made up for it on Friday and Saturday - I didn't mind at all because it was delightful weather and my lady and I were both in the mood to work. I will likely spend most of today munching hay and dozing off in my stall under the box that makes wind. I will be ready for my cool rinse this evening just the same.

Freedom from fireworks!!!! (almost as bad as hunting season - a very bad time)...

Due to a tragic accident last July 4th, our community decided to skip that loud scary tradition this year. Tonight will be peaceful :)

Happy 4th of July everyone - be safe!

I love, love, love my readers, and knowing that you've stopped by - it really makes my day.

However, to avoid the new illegible blogger word verification, I've added comment moderation. Lesser of two evils.

Please don't let this stop you - keep those comments coming!! :)
