Joel and I have contacted Volunteer Equine Advocates about donating our pasture for rescue horses. They came out to the house this week, and were really happy with the offer. We have a few things that need to be done, but by this time next month, we should have our first rescue horses staying with us.
One of the things we need to do is replace the fence line that separates the yard from the pasture. The old one was badly installed and dilapidated, and Joel wanted to change the location of it, so we just removed it entirely. The new fence will probably be up next week.
We also finally tried to turn the water and power on to the barn to no avail. There is a broken pipe in the barn--seems to be within my skill level to repair, but the power is another story. The mains have been pulled from the breaker box in the barn, so it is not connected, which also makes the power to the riding arena dead. We need to get an electrician out to get that fixed. One more unexpected hiccup. Hopefully someone will give us a good price on the repair since it is for the horse rescue.
