Anyway, I sat next to my good friend Barb during the class (we had to make an iMovie together...) and she invited us up to her house in Pinyon Flats for dinner last night. Hubby brought asparagas, corn, and wine. There were 9 of us there, including some of her neighbors. We had grilled shrimp, chicken, and sausages, bbq corn & asparagas, and sliced peppers in olive oil. Oh, and one of her neighbors brought some of his home-grown tomatoes, which were DELICIOUS! I'm not a big tomato eater, but these were very tasty. A good time was had by all and it was good to be able to sit outside at night (we can't do that here in the desert because it is just too hot). We looked up at the stars and Milky Way and listened for coyotes. She lives in Pinyon Flats, which is right on the way to the horse ranch.
Here are some pics from last night. Barb has a new horse, a Tennessee Walker who was her mom's horse (her mom is 83 now...). I like how Barb lets her horses roam her property. It is completely fenced with two electrical wires running along it. The bottom one is to keep the coyotes OUT and the top one is to keep the horses IN! Barb accidentally touched the top one with wet shoes (rubber ones) and told us it knocked her backwards on her butt! She doesn't remember much about it and fortunately was okay. Next time, she'll be more careful!
Barb has a lot of animals...several chickens, an old turkey, a goat, several dogs, some cats, and her horses! The top photo is her newest horse, "Chief", who was her mom's riding horse. He walked right up to us on the porch!
