Beau, Axel, and Cody

And it was back out to the ranch this afternoon. When I got there Kalani was napping in the sun, laying in the middle of the front pasture. Everyone else was grazing away. And Corey and Cody were about 3 feet away from each other. Yay! So we groomed up Axel, Cody, and Beau. Dick came out to ride Beau and Tom rode Cody. We took it slow going up and down the hills. Beau did great, though. He's got arthritis but he really loosened up on our ride. The very last hill seemed like a bit of work for him but other than that he was really happy. And Cody, I think he was really happy that Beau went out riding with us. Jacque has said that she's seen Cody standing behind Beau at the hay feeder, waiting for an invitation to eat with him. I think he really wants to be Beau's friend. So it seemed like he was really looking out for Beau on the trail ride. When they got to the top of the hill they were nose to nose checking each other out. So cute! Goofy horses, there was some loud airplane coming from the other side of the woods somewhere and Axel did not want to go into the woods. Beau had to lead until we got going. But after that we made it just fine. I think they are pretty happy with all their new friends.
