Iceman Update / July 13th

Hello all -

Sorry for the lack of posting lately, but as usual things have been pretty busy for everyone out at Shiloh.

Iceman is doing great. He has been getting lots of exercise and enjoying his turn out time. He will basically follow you right through the gate to the turnout area without hesitation now....on a fairly long lead of course. Hopefully soon, we can cross the path over to the larger, sandy turnout and let Iceman roll in the soft sand and meet some of the other horses. Iceman seems to be making friends with everyone around him and has enjoyed the company of Gladys recently. Gladys is a beautiful mare who was moved from her pasture to the next door stall so that everyone could keep a closer eye on a wound she received. Iceman, who is known to have a way with the ladies, has had no complaints. :)

I have managed to get him rinsed off a few times as well, followed by some grooming. I have to say that Iceman really cleans up good and am looking forward to the summer months ahead and working on the bathing process.

Here are a few pics after his recent rinsing. After it was all said and done, he seemed to be happy and feeling much cooler in our desert heat. I will be out of town for the next few days, but after I get back I hope to post some better pics for everyone.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great week!

Eric
