Fall Riding Days

Nothing better than Fall Riding. All it includes, changing of the seasons, crisp colorful leaves, cool afternoons, layers of clothes, misty moist fields, pheasants jumping up, visiting the pear tree, horses getting thick hair, the dog following, trying to made each ride last longer. Memories.

Country Lane Dinosaur

Spent Saturday hauling home 3000 lbs of concrete blocks for the bird building and 60 bags of concrete. Mixed it up last night and the dog kennel is closer to being done. After coffee this morning, Scott & I unloaded the blocks and found this huge guy was sunning in the warmth and safety of the holes. He flew to the Sedum, we grow em bigger in the country !

Platte River Pelican

Safe Haven was asked to help with an American White Pelican, summering on the Platte River and unable to migrate out, due to a wing injury. After a flurry of phone calles, a concerned couple in their airboat secured him and delivery to our compound involved an evening meeting in a Meade gravel parking lot. He has taken over Chiefs stall and is eating his weight in minnows. He leaves soon in a coordinated effort with the local wildlife group to his new home in a western Nebraska Zoo.
