The Boys.

I had Anna do two sessions with Levi while she was visiting from Germany.  She could not believe how much he had grown.  He was so good for her.  Anna claims that she was stretching him here, but I think she was really giving him a hug goodbye.


Sid and I managed to sneak a couple of early morning rides in during the hot days.

Levi, the knucklehead, decided to roll right next to the fence.  It was late one evening, and I was literally the only one at the ranch.  Sid was out of cell service.  He got his legs stuck in the fence panel.  Thankfully he remained calm.  I tried to think of what to do.  I was walking the outside of the fence and going to try and help get them unstuck.  As I did this, he managed to get one leg free.  He then tried to stand up and free the other leg.  In the process he scraped it along the metal of the fence.  He had a pretty  nice wound.  Again, I was by myself.  I thought...what would I do for a human?  I walked him over to the wash rack and hosed it down good to clean it out.  I found some antibiotic cream in the trailer along with some gauze and vet wrap.  I got it all doctored up.

I had Sid check it the next day.  Thankfully, it healed up very nicely.  Gah!
