I am Precious and my horse's name is Pretty Boy. Those are our barn names. That is what we get called on an everyday basis. I am a Paint horse and my paper name is Skippers Precious. My Pretty Boy is a Red Roan Appaloosa horse who's paper name is Trouper. Anywho........I tell the house mouse about our life and what happens out here on the farm and in my big red barn so she can tell you. Well now you know so on with the stories.................

A Polar Bear in my barn!

I was standing in my barn looking at a Polar Bear when it dawned on me there are no Polar Bears around here. And since that Polar Bear had been standing there with one foot up in the air for a very long time I concluded that it was not a real Polar Bear but a photographic image of a Polar Bear.

Should have had a sign beside it that said ‘This is not a real Polar Bear’. But I guess that would not have been true because it was real Polar Bear just not a real LIVE Polar Bear. Oh yes there is a difference. One will just wave at you all day and the other one probably would not.

So I was standing there looking at that picture of a Polar Bear and I got to wondering why there was a picture of a Polar Bear in my barn. I asked the House Mouse but she didn’t know why it was there only that the human girl had put it there.

If the fog ever lifts long enough for us to go outside and look around I think I will try to find her and ask her why she put a picture of a Polar Bear in my barn.

Cold Front

A cold front blew across a couple of days ago. It's winter time so it's naturally going to get colder since my half of the world is leaning away from the sun. Bet you didn't know a horse would know such a thing now did you? Well I do. I know it because I lean a little bit when it first happens. You have to look at me pretty close to see it but I am leaning just smallest amount. In the mornings I lean a little bit one way and then in the afternoon I lean a little bit the other way. I'm pretty much over that now that it is December. It will happen again in the Springtime if you remember you maybe can see me doing it.

When it starts getting cold is when Santa flies his sled pulled by reindeer all around the world in one night. My human man tries to do that too every year but in his truck. He and the girl human go to visit their relatives making a big circle just like Santa does but on a much smaller scale of course but in the same length of time. It's ok with me and my horse, The Pretty Boy Trouper, because they just leave one day and come back the next day. We don't even miss a meal.......not that anyone could tell huh.

Oh that reminds me.........Ho Ho Ho Merrrrry Christmas!!!!!!!!
