Ha Ha! It Finally Quit Raining. Now We are Freezing!

       Well, it finally stop raining here. Yea!  Now it is really cold. It is 17 degrees with a wind chill in the single digits. This is not something we are used to around here. This is Texas afterall.    Now I'm not minding the cold so much this time. The Keeper got me this really cool new blanky.  It is navy and looks great on me. The thing is waterproof, windproof and lined in the softest flannel.  It also has  neat belly piece that fits across my whole belly and doesn't rub like the old blankets. I think I look pretty spiffy in it. 
      I have included a picture of my newest pasture mate. His name is Ben. He is also an older gentleman. The Keeper took him in before Christmas because he no longer had a home due to no fault of his or his owners. The property owner was going to shoot him. Well, we all know the Keeper. We had room and here he is. He is big boy. He has fattened up since he came here and he is even bigger. He started his career as a race horse, he has the tattoo in his lip. Then he went on to be a ranch horse. He has a brand on his hip. Then he went on to be a lesson horse. He was bought as a young girl's horse and now he is here with us. His a very young 35 years old. He fits right in with my pasture bunch.  
         Everyone stay warm and dry and I will check in with ya'll tomorrow. Happy Trails To You!
