I went out this past weekend and it was so hot and muggy that I couldn't muster the energy to lift my saddle. So, I just hopped on bareback and we walked around the arena. We did lots of leg work and we mostly focused on stopping off of my seat. He was very good and I enjoyed the ride.
The highlight of the day was a rescued calf out at the barn!
One of the owners found him while mowing the fence line. He couldn't have been more than 2-3 days old and was laying down, abandoned.
They brought him in to the hay shed and set him up with a box fan and bed of hay. They fed him a bottle of milk replacer and we loved on him for a few hours until the rancher came to pick him up. I was really hoping they would keep him. He weighed maybe 50 pounds and was pretty darn cute! Sorry, no pictures.
