Now we have cows from the neighbor to the South of us. At least they are in the southwest pasture. Rio is enjoying the company. In the first picture he is nose to nose with a calf. I think he likes having friends.

On a good note, Rio is shining live bronze cooper. Damn he looks good. I'll try to remember the camera and show you how beautiful he is looking. That is what tender loving care does for a rescue horse.

I have the best view from my back door.

For the last 4 days Rio has been making a wide circle around the 4-wheeler. He gives it the stink eye when he goes around. He also hasn't been standing in the shade in front of the garage because that evil thing is so close. I told him again that it wasn't going to bite him or attack him in any way. Yesterday he finally decided to believe me, and he walked towards the garage. He still gave the 4-wheeler the stink eye, but he stood in his spot. That boy keeps us entertained.

I told Rio I had to put his fly mask on since flies and gnats were in his eyes. He said fine but you leave my left ear out. I want that ear to be free. I said no all of it, buddy boy. I won.

Rio: Sing happy birthday to me little brother.

Moose sticks out his tongue: No.

Happy 20th (?) birthday to the best friend a girl could ever ask for. 🏇 🎈 :red_balloon_heart:

I was going to take my picture with him, but he decided to be shy.

I took Rio's fly mask off a couple of days ago partly because of the heat and he wasn't being bothered too much by flies. Today I had to put it back on since the gnats are bothering him. But I wanted to show off his pretty face before I did.

Oh lord it's hard to be humble when you're as perfect as Rio is.
I can't wait to go out and see
him, he gets better looking each day.

To know him is to love him.
He's one hell of a horsey.
Oh lord it's hard to be humble but Rio's doing the best that he can.

I used to have a Sam-Sam, but the Good Lord took him home.
Now I have a Moose dog, he's as spoiled as they come.

Oh lord it's hard to be humble but my boys are doing a great job🎶

Rio decided that he's mowed the front yard enough and now he'll stand in front of his people's barn.

Rio was watching me watching Moose go potty but something better caught his attention.

We've been giving Rio his arthritis meds and he is moving along like a young pony. Yay!

Instead of 'Where's Waldo' I'm playing 'Where's Moose'.

Your love has lifted me higher
Whenever I have ever been lifted before
So give it up, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forever more
I was I was drown harder
Disappointment was my closest friend.
But you came,
and he never show his face again.
