Pony safaris

The lady came driving the little green truck thing right into our pasture and then she came driving it right into our clearing in our woods.  We were pretty surprised because she hardly ever does that.  Usually she comes walking back to see us.  So we walked over to the green truck thing to check it out.  And there was another lady on the seat in the front.  But more importantly, there were two of those black buckets with grain in them sitting in the back of the truck thing.  Our regular lady stuck the buckets together and told the other lady to put them by her feet so that us ponies couldn't eat that grain.  I think it is very rude to show up with a snack and then not even offer it to your hosts.  Our regular lady got tools and a halter out and she put the halter on Sienna and started messing around with her feet.  So Harley went up to the new lady and tried to get her to give him one of those buckets.   He gave her kisses and put his head on her shoulder and was just being really nice to her.  I thought maybe while she was distracted, I could climb in the other side of the truck thing and take some of that grain, but it didn't work. The top bucket didn't even have any grain in it and the lady kept flapping her hands and saying "shoe" or something like that. She said a couple of senseless words like, "Git" so I don't know what she was talking about.   Of course, Toby and Gypsy showed up and wanted to push their noses in too so there were a lot of ponies trying to climb on top of that lady to look in the empty bucket.  So our regular lady got done messing with Sienna's feet and then we got a couple of carrots from her and then they left.  And the next day, here came the lady again with the little green truck thing and drove it into our pasture again.  So we went over to see if there were grain buckets, but there were none.  There was just a man sitting with our regular lady.  So after we checked for buckets and tried to get him to give us some carrots for kisses, we mostly just left.  Except for Harley,  He was sure there were going to be carrots or grain or something to be had from it.  The man kept laughing at Harley.    Harley thinks laughing is okay as long as there are carrots too.  So now it looks like the lady is running some kind of pony safari business.
