I'm cramming in two months worth of work into three blogs here. Doesn't seem like much, but we've got a lot done!
In August, my country boy took the time to work up ground for our new arena. Some gals want flowers or dinner, not me. Dig me up some dirt to ride in and I’m happy! The spot feels right, like it was meant to be an arena. I can’t wait to get it completely done and put up our lights! We have so much to do on the arena yet, I’m just thankful for some worked up ground for now.

The ground worked up really good.
Even though it was still a little rough I took the horses out to ride in it.
After his “honey do” list, country boy got back to work on the horse pens.
Moving more dirt and welding up more braces.
A view of the horse pond where they bulldozed some rough ridges.
Dally was the foreman
Dad and country boy, setting more posts and welding more braces.
Never miss the opportunity to take a good photo through the ears of a good horse.
September arrives and we are waiting on the powers that be to appraise the land. Things are rolling, slowly but surely. We just keep trucking along, working away on what we have control of. All the while, taking some time with friends, cooking out and having fun. After all, that is what keeps us sane though all of this!
Like I could resist a horse selfie
My happy place
Arena is still a work in progress but at least we have worked up ground to work horses in.
Roll out some barrels....now this place is starting to feel like home.
