It’s true. Hard to believe, I know.

More shocking news: there is actual mud here, not sand! So when it rains, as it very often does, the pasture and anything else that has been deprived of ground cover turns into a soggy, sucking, sticky mire of muck. It’s also really slippery. What that means is, only the most die-hard rider would venture out in this weather. I really don’t want to get that wet. Also, I’ve seen my horse walk in the mud, and frankly he’s not as sure-footed as you might expect. So I guess we’ll wait till it dries up a bit.

In the meantime, I’ve stuck Valentine in his stall to dry out so I can brush off the mud that is plastered over his entire left side. Klutz.
