When the herd is nowhere to be seen in the morning, I'll go out to find them
and bring them back to the barn to put on their fly masks and grazing muzzles.
If I halter and lead one home, they'll all follow...eventually.
Lucy is usually my go-to Judas.
Lucy: It sucks to be me.
I remind her that with great beauty comes great responsibility.
Lucy: Get your ass back in line!
Alan: She can be such a bitch in the morning.
We've done this often enough that Lucy will lead herself back to the barn.
Lucy: You'd think my gorgeous summer dapples would absolve me
from this humiliation.
from this humiliation.
George: Hold up a minute. We lost one.
Hank: I'm coming. Don't rush me.
George: We're all here now. Put the coffee on.
Great training for the day you go walking around the country...
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful morning!
ReplyDeleteI would've guessed Hank would want to be lead horse. Tell Lucy the beauty queen should lead the parade.
ReplyDeleteSo smooth. They just do what they are supposed to do as part of the natural order of the morning. Summer nights in the pasture, glorious.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your blog but this morning the pics & expressions on their faces, plus your captions brought a smile to my face & made me laugh - Thank you! I really needed it today......
ReplyDeleteDee
Good way to start the morning! Unless you're Lucy.
ReplyDelete"With great beauty comes great responsibility." Oh Lucy, next time she pulls that, retort "beauty is its own excuse for being." Aunt Jean
ReplyDeleteand all is well at 7MSN
ReplyDeleteLucy is such a smart one - leading herself and the others back to the barn
ReplyDeleteOh Lucy, despite such poetic speech - "gorgeous summer dapples would absolve me
ReplyDeletefrom this humiliation"....you can still be like Alan and George - an ass. Technically speaking, of course.
I think I've gotten too used to your helmet cam! I was kind of disappointed today wasn't a video! ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Lucy's dapples, by the way! =)
