Rambo's new digs

So it's a long story, but it ends with us adopting a great Morgan named Rambo from our friend, Kathleen. Job one, figure out where to keep him. Fortunately, our friend Pat has an awesome place out in Lodi and has practically laid out the red carpet for us. She already has an appaloosa named Murphy who's in need of another friend. We spent last weekend riding, and this weekend preparing Rambo's new home. We had to build a second stall off of one side of Pat's barn. The pictures that follow chronicle that process.


The barn, all ready for a second stall.

The pond, fenced in and ready to go.


Yesterday, the girls put up the fence to divide the front pasture, took pictures, and rode Murphy while Nick and I put up the first side of the shed.
