Look - It's a Horsy

Rain

I'm in Morganton and it's rained some every day this week. Today the rain was the heaviest so far.

Looking at the news and on the interwebtubes - it's raining hard back home in Moncure too.

Welcome, welcome rain.

We're still going to be in an extreme drought for some time to come.

But it's a start.

I wish I was there to see it.

Sunday Concert


This photo is from Sunday at Depot Park in Sanford. It was the last of this summer’s concerts by the Lee Community Orchestra.

They’ll have one more Christmas performance on December 1st. After that, it’s a wait still the concerts start up next spring.

Work

Working this week at the J. Iverson Riddle Development Center in Morganton. JIRDC is a full time care facility for people with learning and development needs.

There is a stable on campus and the residents can ride horses as part of their care and therapy. Some folks aren’t able to ride so the horses come to them.


It was raining today when I took this photo. The horse and folks are on the covered porch to keep out of the rain.

The campus and buildings here are in good shape and well maintained. The residents are well cared for and seem quite happy.

If you’re reading this, you are doing pretty good yourself.

Take some time to reflect on how well your life is and enjoy it to the fullest.

Made me want to sing: "...a horse is a horse, of course..."
Charming animal that I'd let in my house anyway. Plus I'm glad no one's riding this poor swayback--It's done enough work for one lifetime. :)
