Great Spring Day

Today was a great spring day. I spent the morning finishing up my classes for the semester! I'm so happy to be done with those. ugh.
I spent the afternoon giving my horse a bath, cleaning his hooves, brushing him out and braiding his mane and tail. I called the farrier and he'll be out on Monday! It is already riding season but it's late for me because I need to get my saddle repaired and a new bit. I'm still using the one that was loaned to me. I went to get a new one and naturally they didn't have one in stock and the guy that could have fixed my saddle wasn't in that day. Ugh. wasted trip. Anyway, Blue didn't enjoy all the pampering because he was just eyeing the green grass his buddy was munching on. My friend and barn mate put eachothers horses out to the pasture when we are at the barn. Our horses get along great so they like to go out together. This has been a great thing but they do get buddy sour a bit. I might have to split them up when I put them out from now on.
Blue looked pretty with his mane all braided. I'm sure he will be caked in mud on Monday when I go out for his farrier appt. His mane is so thick it took forever to braid but it was nice to just hang out in the beautiful weather at the barn.
