Girls Love Horses

Why? Tell me why?
Oh why? Do girls love horses?

Our friend Elizabeth came to visit. Suna took her to see the horses, of course. Nobody really comes to see me. They come to see Suna and the horses. That’s okay. I’m really a hermit at heart.

Elizabeth and Spice got on so well they made Apache jealous—not that it’s that difficult. But in the end, horse cuddles make everything better, except maybe chocolate.

Cows and Laundry

Cattle studying laundry “I wonder if we can eat that flappy stuff…”
She just looked at me, uncomprehendingly
Like cows at a passing train
—Don Henley

Cattle are naturally curious creatures, despite their reputation for incomprehension. Granted, their curiosity mostly involves whether or not a new item is edible.

That curiosity only leads to problems when it conflicts with my desire for clean clothes. While the house is under construction, I’ve been living in the RV, right? We do have a washing machine in the garage but no dryer. So, I hang my clean clothes on the back fence to dry.

And…queue the cattle.
