Where Is Spring?

I'm ready for spring. I don't do well in winter weather, which we have had plenty of lately. Just a few weeks ago we actually got 6 inches of snow! I must admit it was really pretty--everything was white. But I am SOOOO looking forward to the 70-degree weather, not this rainy, foggy stuff we have been having lately.

In other news, we have found a farm! It's a 35-acre property about 30 minutes north of Greensboro. The house is only about two years
old, and there is already a 4-stall barn, two pastures, and a run-in. We have been super busy moving and settling in. So far, we love it. I will be glad when I can actually stay at home for a while and enjoy the country. We still haven't sold our house yet, but we are going to move out and hope that warmer weather will bring a buyer.

Our lives continue to be dominated by four-footed creatures of the equine variety. We are now back down to four horses--LuLu is now in a new home where she will get the attention she deserves. Flash is still battling the worst sarcoid ever and will probably be going back to State next month for radiation treatment. Jazz recently had an abscess that kept her out of commission for about a week. Trigger is having another bout of mild lameness which has been attributed to metabolic syndrome. Empress is doing well (knock on wood) and she and I are still working hard at dressage.

That's about it for now. See below for some recent pictures.
