Work place

Well, the lady has been neglecting us, as you already know, and probably it is because we are way back here with all this nice grass in these far fields.  The lady has to drive back here to see us with the little green truck thing so we were willing to forgive her as long as she shows up a couple of times during the day and still gives us carrots sometimes and pets us.  So then she shows up with the big orange machine and starts dragging big trees around that the noisy man cut down when he was back here in our woods making good places for us to stand out of the sun.  The lady laid those trees down in one of our fields, right by where we stand in the woods.  Then the next day, here came that noisy man, dragging more trees around and putting them right on top of the trees that were already there. He had even more noisy little machines and made them sound like really big bees while he made smaller pieces fall off the big trees.  We went out to try to figure out what he was doing and walked all around those trees, but we are not sure what it is.  I am going to attach a pic.

  But the lady says our vacation is over and that we are going to have to go to work now.  This better mean carrots....

Interactions

So the lady has just not been as much fun as she ought to be.  I know, the weather was hot and there are a lot of bugs, but you would think she would come back here more and bring us way more carrots.  We only see her a couple of times a day, and she doesn't even try to sit on top of us or even put halters on our heads unless she wants to mess around with our feet with those metal things.  I think it has something to do with that big cranky mare that she put in the big hole.  Ever since then she has been moping around.  That big cranky mare didn't like ponies too much so I didn't even know her except to see her through the fence and she was always nice to the lady even when she was super cranky to all the other horses and ponies.  But then, everyone knows you have to be nice to the lady or she just takes her carrots and goes home. I mean, like if you just lay back your ears a little bit and make a face at the pony on the other side of her, she will up and leave.  But the cranky mare seemed to really like her, regardless of the carrot situation. Now, every time the lady walks by the hill with the dirt on it where the big hole was, she says "Hi Red" and then she acts sad.  Us ponies try to make her happy by going right up to her and we give her kisses and put our heads on her shoulder and then we wait (impatiently) for carrots.  I think it is working a little bit because she brought us more people on a pony safari for a couple of days.  There was a lady who was acting like a post while she was tied to DD and then there was a man who liked to stand up in the green truck thing.  The man seemed distracted by a little shiny box he had in his hand and he didn't have any carrots AT ALL.  Today our regular lady (not the post lady) came out on the big orange machine and drove all around in our field and now the weeds are shorter in part of the field where they used to be higher than our knees.  We are definitely going to have to check that out to see if the grass is better.
