Tuesday Larry worked all morning and afternoon on our feed wagon to get it up and running. It broke down the night before, but thankfully in the end it was a simple fix.  It has almost 2,000 hours of feeding and caring for animals on it already!  It seems like just the other day it […]

Monday Dr. Wulf came out to look at a few of our horses. Angel (the blind horse) got a check up.  She was curiously listening, trying to picture what Dr. Wulf’s clipboard looks like.    You may remember the US Park mules that we rescued by bidding on them on the government auction?  The person in […]
