Finally. Something went right.

After deciding to cover the one big paddock with Crusher Dust last month, the day we were going to do it the heavens opened and we got 14" of rain in two weeks. Being that all the ground around here is made of *White Marl* not only is it slick, it's the kind of ground that will swallow vehicles whole.

Before:



The last 10 days have been unexpectedly dry and I snatched at the chance to get the CD down. 10 loads later I have one brand new paddock. :-) I'm so SO happy right now.

After:













One paddock to go.



Doing the big one first means that no matter the weather I will always have a place to walk Mandy.
Even if I can't turn her out in it yet.
