Woke up this morning to the horses in the orchard. The fence was shorting out, so while Mike mowed, I chopped down all the berries that were growing at the fence line. It took me over two hours to cut down the blackberries. I love the berries, but the bushes are so tenacious and they grow everywhere.

Lei has started chasing the horses, and as a result Racer is gimpy now. Nothing we do can stop Lei from her games, so sadly, we are looking at rehoming her to a place where there is no livestock. I can’t have Racer getting hosed up and lame. I won’t go there, not again.
