How lucky for you to be back on your family farm! You don't know how badly, I wished my family had been in the agricultural way...my whole life, I felt outta place...I envy you.
How cool is it to have a female farrier! That's just awesome! And I LOVE your "At the Farm" sign!

Meet Samantha Fields, a wonderful young lady, who is now doing my hoof trimming for me. Sam has trained my Arabian, Knot, to ride. Worked with my other horses and got a halter on Arrow today when I haven't been able to in months.
Sam seems to have a personal connections with horses, in fact, all animals love her.
If you notice Charme, my Haflinger, is about to fall asleep.
The third photo is a sign I made out of pieces of my life. Each piece has a story. When we came to the farm, we soon discovered many things has ruined in the barn during years of storage. The A is part of Grandma Pruett's pie safe, the T is part of Grandma's old wash stand, the H is Grandma Greenstreet's chest of drawers and on we go to the M which is part of Dad's bee hive. The wreath below the sign is rusted barbed wire with horse shoes in it.
I promised I would say when the photos were taken by me so today is the day.
