Monday Stable Visit.

Went out to the Stable Monday evening after work. Worked with the horses a bit and switched their winter blankets out for rain sheets.

Well Ella's is a rain sheet, but Eli's is a water resistant turnout sheet so has a liner inside. Ella's didn't so instead of throwing the plastic like blanket on her I threw on Eli's fleece sheet first, layering it a bit.

Glad I did because it turned out to be warm the following two days and sunny. They certainly would have been warm maybe over heated and I got a major migraine so have been out of commission since first thing Tuesday morning.

At least with the light blankets when the sun goes down and the wind picks up they have some cover and can retain a bit of body warmth.

In the second picture picture below you can see Eli and Jesse in the Arena peering through the door at Ella and her pretty pink rain sheet. I didn't pick this pattern/color intentionally, it just happen to be the best quality for the best price haha. Have to love Sales.

Was happy to see Eli had eaten up all the hay that was in the hay net hanging from the shelter in his paddock, updated the 'Boredom and Head Bobbing' post with the empty net picture.
