Saturday I worked in Sonoma (Windsor) for my fall hay money. Lynn and Shirley took Star, Ziggy, and Jupiter to the vet for their shots.
Here's her version:
What a great day!
>
> Weather, overcast turning out sunny all at one time. :) NO wind.
> Dr. Mott, is great. She said his feet are not bad. If you want to feed the Farriers Choice is fine, best product for feet, but you will not see much difference for about 1 year. You must feet it every day to do much good. She checked his teeth. He will probably need teeth floated this next fall. He was really good for her. She did say he was over weight. I said yes he is a easy keeper. She said Morgan's are very easy keepers and tend to be over weight. I said he will be hopefully going down with riding.
>
> Star is in great shape. Teeth are perfect, she could not believe how good he looks and the shape he is in for his age.
>
> Ziggy, well she went to give him wormer and as she walked up to him, she said "oh there is more of him than I thought." I laughed. She had to put a little more in the syringe. His teeth are good. But I had his floated a year or so ago.
>
> She was impressed with how well they all stood for shots. She said a lot of them will not stand still.
>
> We drove out to the beach, parked where you and I parked. Rode about a mile or so, nice and warm, no wind. Star was a bobble head horse. :)

> Zig was TNT! I could feel his heart pounding! I rode in your western saddle. The saddle was back a few inches too far back. So he felt even worse. Jupe has been ponied before, I figured he had. Probably with a saddle when he was young. He wanted to roll about the time his feet hit the sand. I did not let him. Then we were out near the ocean, and he had a small bucking fit. :) Mom hollered at me, to watch out. He was funny. On the way back low and behold there is a man and woman , in PINK! Jupiter was having flash backs and planted his feet! I felt the pull and it was like I was on him and touched Him with the spurs... ah Ziggy with spurs, Zig shot forward and Jupe's feet was planted. I did not turn loose and pulled with everything I had and Jupe shot forward. Those dang moving pink things are flat out scary. Check out last picture in the back ground :))))
(can you see the pink monster in the background?)

> After the short but very nice ride, we unsaddled and took them back up the hill into the sand and let them roll. Star must have went down I think I counted seven times, several times dug to China. :) Star was loving it! Jupe 3 times, I laughed he was digging with his front legs while on the ground! Mom and I were laughing. Zig went for one roll, he was digging with his nose! The sand was really nice and warm. (I felt it)
>
> Happy and Haley had a ball!
>
> We loaded up went to Big K (Kmart) then to Denny's for lunch. It was actually good. There was not a seat vacant in there. It was nuts. I heard on waitress say it's been like this since 7am. Wow. Crazy in there.
Sorry I missed it! Sunday was a good day, too. We went up and around on the Hennessey. Everyone behaved! Did I do one of these last weekend? Lynn saw a 300 lb, beautiful, black shiny bear. :) It was a good weekend, too. I am looking forward to a long weekend next weekend.
It was a nice weekend. Saturday and Sunday. I am hoping for sweet dreams tonight. I need them. Poor Star is still stoved up some from the shots. I feel sorry for him.
