What we learned tonight (guest blogger Vashti)

Mom came to see me tonight - I was super tired because I got to eat grass allllll day in the pasture. We only get out to the pasture to eat about once a year or so... (Deb's note: it's actually a pasture rotation and she is out there once a week) So, anyway, I was really tired being out in the sun and eating and guarding the water trough. That's hard work guarding the water - you never know when another horse might sneak up there! And now Mom wants me to carry her all around - after my long day. Sheesh.

Oh wait, I'm supposed to tell you what I learned tonight. So, I'm hauling Mom around outside, working my tail off, when she decides we should leave the dirt ring and walk over to some grass. Grass is good for eating, but it's also good at hiding suspicious characters, like that squirrel of death... Now I'm carefully watching as we start over the grass - in fact, I even tried to take Mom right back to the dirt, but sometimes she can be so stubborn. Then, there it was! A crafty, pouncy, cat! I jumped straight up, but Mom told me it was alright. So I learned cats do not eat horses, even if they are no good, tricky little fur balls and I still have my suspicions if Mom is right about this "fact"
