Redbuds and purple nettle
Make springs announcement.

Rainy Days March 19, 2015
Rain on a tin roof
Makes a barn nice and cozy
Horses get more hay.
Art Prescription: So I was out caring for Finn while two classes of 8 to 10 year old girls came to the farm for lessons. A steady rain meant no riding, but there is so much more to learn at the barn about caring for horses. It’s getting cool tonight so the girls helped put out extra hay for all.

Horses Know March 11, 2015
Sugar, spice, and sass
Sweet little mare with long bangs
Knew what I needed.
Art Prescription: I rode Shelly today. After feeding over the winter I was intrigued by this spirited mare. She would always come to greet me at the gate. Finn is healing and getting some time off. I really enjoyed Shelly’s energy today…just what I needed.
