This was their first time in the new field in months.
Non-Denominational Stamps
Don’t you just hate it when you find a bunch of old stamps then discover that they don’t have a denomination on them so you can’t use them? (I’ve started buying Forever Stamps to avoid this problem.) However, in the meantime, you can check this guide to Nondenominated Postage, and get rid of those old stamps.
That Was (Somewhat) Exciting
I just got a call from our neighbor to the west telling me she had seen one of our horses out of our field. I didn’t immediately panic because where one horse goes, the others would follow, and I could see Rags calmly grazing from the window. Even if Hap had jumped out of the field, which Rags couldn’t do, Rags wouldn’t have been so calm about what he would have viewed as abandonment.
However, as I expected, I counted three heads almost immediately when I got out to the horse field. I also saw a rider walking near our fence line. I shouted to make sure she was okay and she said she had dismounted voluntarily but let go of the reins. The horse, evidently a dark horse like Hap, had headed home for his barn.
So I turned the horses out in the new field for two hours. We’ve had enough precipitation recently there is actually something resembling grass out there.

Bonding
Jack and Orion spend some quality time together. I am trying to convince Jack that a nylabone is a better chew toy for Orion than the remote.

Still Coming Down
It is not unusual to get snow in April, but it is rare to get so much. What makes this snow particularly strange is the temperatures have hovered right above freezing, and the snow is still accumulating. Tomorrow is supposed to be in the fifties.
