Horses!

Well, i had a whole page full of info and stuff that has happened this week, but i can't find it! grr! so i'll have to see if i can find anything from my horrible memory lol.
  Yesterday Prince got moved to a whole new piece of grass, and he decided that the grass was greener under the electric fence instead of on his side of the fence (it was way better on his side of the fence), so he proceeded to eat all the grass under the hot wire first and then start on the stuff on his side. Crazy horse!
  i was on one side of his wooden fence (it had an electric fence going across it to stop him pushing on it and stopping him getting injured- as it was rotten) digging up a garden.
  i picked some grass off the clumps of grass that i had dug up (no dirt on it) and held it out over the fence to him. he stopped eating under the electric fence and told me (with very obvious face expressions) that "I can't reach it mum!" his feet were about two feet away from my hot wire and his nose was one long foot away from from my hand. We were stretched out to full limits (i wish somebody took a pic!). in the end i threw it to him which he promtly ignored. Toad!
  i haven't been able to ride him for almost three weeks now so he is pinging off the paddock fences- dying to get out for a run.
  Being a Kaimanawa you would think that he wouldn't like to do much exerise. huh! its so not true! Prince loves to move ( is and beautiful mover by the way) and keep himself fit. which at the moment i am stopping him because he had lost so much weight (if he looses a tiny bit more his ribs will be showing- not good!), so he is unfit. poor boy!
  the weather is weird around Kaponga. It has been overcast, sunny, raining, thunderstorms,  and overcast again. strange aye? i just wish it was summer!
