Glacier update


So last week I went up the hill to the corral where Glacier was being socialized. She heard my voice and nickered, coming quickly to the fence to see me. Her coat was almost completely shed out, the nappy old hair still clumping in tufts along her flank, but the new shiny black and white hair gleaming in the sun. She has gained at least 50 pounds and was calm and eager to see me. Of course I didn't have my camera with me, so I decided today I'd go back and take a picture to share with you. 
This is what I found! An empty pasture, with her pretty lavender halter hung on the fence. She had achieved the pasture horse status at last! 63 acres of rolling grasslands and other retired horse buddies to share it with. What more could a girl want?  
So no picture of her today, but if she comes down to the barn anytime soon, I'll try to snap few to share!
