| Ron is learning more and more each day about the caring & feeding of horses, and he seems to be enjoying it very much. This is a job I think I could learn to love :) Just look at the beauty all around you. |
 |
| He's learned that sometimes you even have to chase them down and a bucket of feed doesn't always help. |
 |
| Jimmy couldn't help Ron because he's still supposed to be taking it easy. |

| Here's my cowboy... |

| Ron & Linda cleaning out the stalls. It's a daily event and somebody has to do it. |

| This horsey is hungry |
 |
| Look at that smile! Ron gets a daily workout and who needs to go to the gym when you work this hard everyday. |

| Scooping poop with the pooper scooper. It looks just like my cat litter pooper scooper but much, much larger. |
 |
| I love my brother! And I'm so happy to see him happy. Jimmy and I had a great time but I can't say that it was 'uneventful' because it was full of fun and exciting things that Jimmy & I haven't done in a long time, and I think Ron & Linda know exactly what we're talking about, hahaha. |

| Linda & Ron I finally got to meet Linda and she's just as wonderful as Ron described her. I was very impressed by how hard she works every day and Jimmy and I couldn't of had a more gracious and kind hostess. Today after Linda finished her morning rounds with the multitude of horses that she takes care of, she took us to the Mennonite village where I pigged out on all the goodies they had to offer. Last night they took us to a very expensive and exclusive restaurant that had a real chef who was much like the guy in the Seinfield episodes... You know the guy who would say, "NO SOUP FOR YOU!" |
All kidding aside, Jimmy and I had a wonderful time and we'd like to thank Linda for inviting us into her home. We had a great time getting to know Linda and we had a few good laughs and giggles too.

I so love horses and all that comes with taking care of them. They are such amazing creatures and I love the feeling after mucking stalls that you get to see immediately how you have done something and made it better for them.
great pics! looks like you had a great visit!!
Alipurr, Yes we had a great visit and it was fun.
cattywhumpus, Thanks for your comments and for stopping in. I've always loved horses too and when I was younger I used to take care of some in exchange for my rent on a ranch out west. My kids also had a couple while growing up. It was my dream to always own horses but it was short lived in reality, they are an expense and it's also a time consuming job. I have to give Linda credit, she takes care of so many horses and she works very hard. Of course now she has a helper, my brother Ron :)
