Saturday's Horses - Catching up with Pete and Maddie. [View all]

Pete and Maddie live in their corral, in their approximately two acre
in-between pasture and the recently opened up five acre pasture.
As yet their barn quarters are not finished.

Before Laurie completed necessary fencing, the Kids stayed
full-time in their corral, which was adequate, not cramped.


When the horses are in their pen, they do the best they can.



This is the in-between pasture, around two acres, including
the barn. It's flanked by the corral and the big pasture.







Just the other day, Pete and Maddie were heading up the
fence line to get to their new five-acre pasture.

Reaching the gate, they sauntered out.

We suspect the two like having some room out there to graze.

And romp around.
