Got over to barn finally this week, Recovery & hospital visits made it hard

 It was a nice day, this weekend was the 4H Fair I was not able to bring the kids, Raych's or Joes but its ok Bob was home from surgery and the reaction to the tube removeal procedure. First week of no work too. Its been crazy.

But today, I was able to get over to do the soak we needed yesterday too. I plan to go over on Wednesday for another soak and do supplements.

Around 2pm I headed over, had so much to do. Grabbed Beau from his paddock area, brought an apple up today. He was really into eating that apple and he walked quickly down to the barn front. I hosed him off perfectly, one direction and then move to the other side. He wasnnt too innteresed in being a jerk. Thats wondnetful. I brought him into his stall. He loves his stall. I saw last week how he loved to tear into his hay so I put him in to relax, grab some water and chill out. I put some fly spray onn him. He just kept eating as I sprayed him. 

We did about 70 backward steps, with cut carrots for the reward. He rann and rolled but nothing dramatic when running. I let thim chill out and play in the arena. He walked around rolled again and then I brought him down to the cross ties. I used his special halter today, he looks great in it annd its more comfortable.

I got the little pool ready put in some  epson salts, warm water to disolve the salts. Put Beau on the cross ties and brushed himout while he soaked in the baby pool, well actually I soaked his foot into the small pan, and then moved the baby pool over. He asked to have both feet soaked separately. the first one got out the dirt. I was able to dig out the hoofs ok today.

I was able to stay to get his chores done but i couldnt get the supplements done. It was just his soak. I also brought the spray thing so I could spray the special stuff on his hoof. He let me wokr on his hoof. I was really glad he was cooperative. I had to leave after a while. Brought in Peanut and Romeo for the night.

Felt like I did pretty good but not everything, still need the to soak maybe wrap and also see if we could do some work in the arena. Maybe lunge maybe Ill do open run.
It was a good enough day, short but I was able to meet up with Raychel, Joe Wes and Chase from a great dinner from 99.
