I've been wanting to fence in my whole back yard for Cord ↑, but have had all kinds of hold ups. There was a sinky hole back there that I thought I could just fill in with dirt, but when son, Rob. was home, he stuck his hand down it (oh, yucky, yuck). He discovered the pipe from the house to the septic tank was broken.
Last week I had the local plumbing place come and patch the pipe. The young man asked me when the septic tank was last pumped. Well, ah, never..... Yesterday Jason came and pumped out the tank. I could only take one quick glance down there. Oh, my, double yucky, yuck. I appreciate folks who can do nasty jobs like that.
Soooo, this a.m., I finished chores at 8 and fenced in the back for Cord. He's a happy feller. It's 90 degrees out already, but the trees keep this area very comfortable. And, surprisingly enough, I didn't see one mosquito the whole time that I was out there. Happy Horsey!
Cord belongs to Beth who I mention frequently here. He's a retired, senior citizen although he looks like a young whipper snapper in that picture, doesn't he?
Oh, I almost forgot to tell you - I took this picture looking down from my bedroom window.

Hi!
Love that retired senior~~we've got one just like him! They are my favorite kind of horses! He looks quite stocky--muscles! He must be working out! Hey, how's NS going for you. When you mentioned your septic tank woes, I thought--It's all the fiber! LOL! Keep in touch! I haven't been on the NS site much lately---too busy doing 2 water aerobics classes everyday, and then there are the "chores" around the place, but I love it!Take care and keep me posted! Love your blog! Jewel
What a strong looking horse!
