Being Mustangs!

Iceman spent the morning feeling wild and free as he played with fellow Mustang, Augustus. They ran, kicked, bucked, farted, rolled, and played halter grab in the soft, warm sand. It is always so wonderful to see Iceman interact with other horses since he was basically a loner for so many years on the open range, especially another Mustang.

Aztec and Iceman 4/15/10

It's always a great day when an Alpaca and a Mustang can share their breakfast in perfect harmony.

Iceman's Good Friday

Iceman definitely had a "Good Friday". The ranch was busy with lots of folks today and the weather was perfect once again. It was probably in the mid 60's with barely a cloud in sight.

It happened to be a very busy day at the ranch, so Iceman lucked out...he just lounged around all day and enjoyed some nice rolls in his stall.....ahhhh, the Good Life.

Eric and Iceman 4/1/10

The Weather Forecast called for wind gusts up to 70 mph, rain, and snow in the pass, but as you can see...it wasn't. Nice, warm, and sunny day with barely a breeze....ahhh.

Eric and Iceman spent most of the morning together in the Round Pen and focused on tacking up. It has been about a week since Iceman had a saddle on, so he needed a bit of a tune up. :)

Wild and Free

This is a great photo of Iceman taken by Shiloh Boarder and Volunteer, Dave Hickey, probably early January of 2009. Here Iceman is posing with one of the two Palominos that he roamed the range with.

The Great Escape!

Iceman broke loose the other day and it was very apparent how comfortable he is on the property now since he galloped all over the 40 acres we have on the ranch! Eric, Sharil, and Jill took off on one of the carts to head to the back and try to catch him, but he would take off bucking and galloping into the Mesquite trees once they got close. He definitely enjoyed himself and stretched those legs...the weather was warm and beautiful and he was feeling great. He also got mixed in with three of the "Wanderers" and Charlie, and that was a sight to be see! The adrenaline kicked in, and the best part was little Charlie running with all his might to keep up with the larger guys. You can catch a glimpse of lil' Charlie in the photo....he is the tiny blur in the middle :)
