Nelson comes back into work!

Nelson has had the Winter and best part of Spring off to grow up. Also because I was frantically busy at work. The resignation of the Farm Hand left me to do both jobs, then I had Senior School Certificate duties marking end of year exam papers so effectivley I was working 3 jobs for awhile there. So my life will be a bit slower for the next 7 weeks which will give me a chance to focus back on the horses. They are fat and unfit so this will be slow. I am glad Nelson had time out though. He has just turned 3 and needed to grow up a bit more. I do not like how many ponies are out showing every weekend as a 3 year old. I have been looking for another pony for a long time now and have seen many sour ponies that are simply over it. Nelson still has a silly, happy look on his face and canters up to you every time you are in his paddock. Cantering is his thing, he rarley walks anywhere! He also neighs every time you open the front door.
I will get some pictures as he is really filling out well.
