He's Back!

 I was doing my evening barn chores when I heard the trailer coming up the driveway and a horse yelling that was in it.  The Yell was recognized by all the other horses, especially by Robi.  His brother Robin1 was home.  Robin 1 left over a month ago to go to another farm for Foxhunting training.  I don't understand that, because he has been an excellent hunter for years. I think it was for my bosses insecurity as a rider.  Either way,he is back.

  As he was yelling in the trailer, his brother was yelling and racing around the field answering him. It was a very sweet scene. It took me awhile to catch Robi  and bring  him in his stall.

When I did, he couldn't keep his eyes off of his Big older brother. He looked like he was teary eyed.

As for Robin1, he is a Lean, Mean Hunting Machine now.

  To lean for my eyes and completely free of a Winter coat.  And she drove him home in this cold without a blanket on him. He'll be lucky not to get sick now.

 But, he's home now and I took care of that right away.

 This is water repellent and lined so he can wear it in any weather. I had no idea that he was coming home.  As usual I don't find out things here until they happen. This time it is a good thing that happened.

In every picture I noticed he was looking at me all bright eyed. He looks happy to be here.  I knew it for a fact when i was buckling his front straps on the blanket. He put his nose against my cheek and held it there for a minute. So sweet, I have missed this horse and didn't realize how much until he did that.  I wish I had someone here to get that picture. And then while I was fastening the rest, he kept reaching around and pulling on my shirt,lol. 

  I try not to get attached to the horses I work with.  But, how could you resist a Face like this? :)
