The wild before the storm

After a winter that didn't even feel like winter...

we're experiencing a very summer-like spring.

But it's still Colorado.

Which means, this happens.

The horses knew it was coming.

Everyone was wild during turnout yesterday.

Especially Sage.

She stayed with me after I took her halter off, hoping for treats. When the supply was gone, she politelly turned away from me, walked a few steps and then took off.

"See ya later, Mom!"

"I've got some running to do!"

She ran...

and she ran...

and she ran.

Because I didn't want to get run over, I stayed outside of the pasture.

Every couple of laps, Sage came over to check in with me.

"Hi, Mom!"

"Got treats?"

Sometimes I did, sometimes I didn't.

Either way, they were short visits.

Girlfriend had some running to do!
