And so with the explanation of last post the blog will leave #148, Tee Pee Minister, until a time when that horse might commence training.  We're left with Mr. Nob and #17.

Mr. Nob post injury (his) certainly retained his nobiness.  6'1.5" and 158 lbs a few days ago with 5 lbs of excess still to lost around the middle.  We can get Nob down to  153 or 150 lbs.

#17 has been in pasture romps this week to the extent we can get those with this lazy animal in present environs, and, Nob got back on last eve, sort of, reporting that his legs were so weak that he just  sat on the horse at the mounting post for a few minutes.  Turned out to be more weather related.  When air  pressure gets to certain point Nob at his young age has leg trouble in the best of times.  When air pressure is right the legs feel like they're still 20.

7/15 and Mr. Farmer has yet to cut his hay.  Found out he outsources the cutting.  Suspecting problem may be  lack  of $$$ for Mr. F.   Horse boarding as a business is less profitable  these days.  Owners just abandon their horses and they become Mr. F's problem.

With #17 we're in flux and just hoping he retains his speed.  Things for us are uncertain at this point.
