Who ever said it doesn't get below zero in Idaho! Negative temperatures in January caused our water line to freeze. We were challenged with running hoses from the house, out to the horses and then draining and bringing them in at night. 

All our animals weathered the cold very well. We didn't have any incidents of colic or other major illness which we are very thankful for. With the temperatures nearing 50 this past week, we have been able to get out and start the much needed cleanup and preparation for our upcoming season.

Big THANK YOU to Western State CAT for donating a backhoe for the weekend to help us with some of these major projects. They have been such a generous supporter of our program.
 

We have been working with our horses every afternoon. They are enjoying the sunshine and opportunity for some exercise. 

Time to get our equipment cleaned up and ready! Sierra and Maddie "painted" saddles yesterday as we began the process of organizing tack. 

Thank you all for your support this winter! Newsletter coming out very soon with some wonderful stories . . .
