This morning when I took Mercy out of the pasture he had a new cut over his right flank. Unfortunately, it is where the saddle pad goes, so I am not riding him until the wound heals a little Ari is going to have to ride solo until it heals a little more. He probably scraped it on a rock in the pasture when he lied down.
The horses are sharing a large cattle pasture and seem to like it a great deal
Lennox feeling pretty cozy in the cattle hay under a shelter.
In the pasture next to the horses are several Scottish Highland cattle. They are adorable. They remind me of Star Wars creatures. Ari is feeding one of them a horse treat.
Here are the cattle.
Mercy in the pasture.
The horses have plenty of space and lots of shade.
There are a few places with grass, but mostly the pasture is rocks, dirt, and cow pies.
Ari took a picture during his solo ride to show what the trails are like. They are mostly logging trails, but pretty.
We are about 5 miles outside of Whitefish and about 40 minutes from Glacier National Forest. We went into Whitefish yesterday and walked around the downtown, ate a pizza at the Tap House, and went grocery shopping. Groceries are really cheap compared to California.
