Today we worked once again hauling and stacking wood. This photo is from yesterday, but at least progress can be seen 😮
The horses worked beautifully today. They are amazing creatures with awesome power! I have worked horses for well over twenty-five years and still get goosebumps watching them on a hard pull. They pull together. They pull hard, using every fiber in their being. Their big muscles ripple under the harness as they dig deep to pull the loaded sled. I watch in awe, filled with pride.
My horses work like that for me because I ask them to do it. They will try with all they have, not out of fear, but rather, just to please me. I praise them for their efforts, scold them with my voice when needed, but take care of them like I would a child. They are my babies 😮
The tractor is parked in the shed and I am getting more work done than I ever imagined that I could. I did get some help today in two willing boys. Our farm also had a visitor, who pitched in as well. It was a great day. Much wood was moved, a few memories were made and though it was more of the same…it was still downright fun!
