Dow...I am heart broken for you all about your hay. Down here in the coastal Houston area we are in such an extreme drought (all over Texas actually), that the hay I'm buying for $9.00 a bale is all brown and dry mostly. It's been a long while since I've been able to get fresh, green hay. My horses and donkeys really don't even want to eat it. They just kind of shuffle it around. It's a big waste really. The pastures haven't fared well being so dry either. They are weedy mostly. No rain to help the grasses grow. In Central Texas (Austin area) my Mom tells me the horses are looking so thin this year because of the dry conditions. It's very sad down here for pasture animals. On another note, I have a name for your baby little bit. I think she looks like a Moon Pie. That is in keeping with Dawn and Sky too! I had a gelding named Moon Shadow. He was a b/w paint. I loved that horse. I called him Moonie. You could go with Moonie or just Pie as short, but Moon Pie as a whole name. Just my two cents worth. Love your blog!<br />KimKim Clemonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15181797876853240318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2174142378463600739.post-37160941058510289702011-07-25T19:47:19.005-06:002011-07-25T19:47:19.005-06:00I like the name Little Bit.

It looks like they stretch as far as you can see. Little Bit is adorable. Look at the butt on her in that last picture! She's going to have some push from behind.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17692541935507155362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2174142378463600739.post-22803950448412864892011-07-23T17:43:33.119-06:002011-07-23T17:43:33.119-06:00Another wonderful and well written post.
