GSF is pleased to welcome Izzy to the farm family.  Izzy is a 16 year old thoroughbred princess who is driving all the boys wild.  She has taken the farm’s last open stall, so I am very pleased to say there is no more room at the Inn!

This time we had 3 guys and 3 girls helping us. We unloaded and stacked 132 bales of hay in record time. I think it took us like 20 minutes.

So this time it was Nash’s turn to meet Chex and Warlock. It was cute with the baby because after the initial checking each other out Nash so started to lick the baby. The Chex had to check things out when the nipping, play biting and squealing started. So I am happy to say they are all getting along really well. Just in time for the last boarder to join us in April.

How do you keep warm in the winter? 

We moved 132 bales of hay from the truck to the hay loft yesterday. Luckily this crazy weather held out for the delivery and unloading.  Thanks as always to the farm family for your help.

Friday night was spent unloading a trailer full of hay. Two barns and 3 1/2 hours later we were finally done and completely exhausted. PS. Check out our guns.

Used the farm truck again today. This time we got 40 bales of hay.
Update on the fencing: it has been such a wet and rainy month that the posts have not set.  So we got 1/4 of the fence up and had to put a temporary fence across the field for now. A big thanks to all my friends for coming out to help with fence party part 2.
Lastly, at the end of the evening I took time to give a little love to Reds (aka Barron).
