Rain, rain go away!

I was so pumped to have three whole days without rain, snow, ice, etc... I was finally able to get up each horse throughly groom them and do a little ground work with each one. The ground is still slick about 2 inches down, so I was only able to manage some inhand work. I was actually pleased with how everyone behaved. I don't think there will be much back tracking when I am finally able to start some real training with them. I am starting to see some real promise with "Jazz". She is beginning to fill out nicely and act like a two-year old is supposed to act. I am still concerned about her ability to begin under saddle work in two months. If she isn't ready, she's not ready. One extremely encouraging sign today --- Sadie was starting to shed! She is always my barometer of the weather. When she started wooling up in Spetember, I knew it was going to be a hard winter. I am looking at this as a sign that spring is on the way!!!
