new hill


So the happy man showed up in the morning and then more men came too. Then the lady came by in the little green truck thing and they gave her some gloves and they all went over to the metal hoops and grabbed ropes that were hanging off the sides. They started pulling on the ropes and the white stuff that was laying on the ground on the other side of the hoops started climbing up the wall! It climbed right over the little fence and up the hoops. Then some of it stopped and was all bunched up, but one of the men got a board and poked it and then it behaved and started climbing back up again. It climbed right up to the top and then slid right down toward us! It wasn't noisy or jumping around or anything, so we were very brave and stood and watched it. Next thing we knew, the metal hoops were gone and there was a giant white hill there that, obviously, ate the hoops. All the men were happy and they left the main happy man to stick straps in metal things with handles that he pulled up and down. Then the happy man left too. And now we have a new white hill next to our pasture.

Fiesta time







So all us ponies came over to watch the happy man dig the holes, but there were no more holes. Instead of holes, there were big posts sticking up out of the ground, that he cut off with a loud machine. Then he made them flat all along the top with boards, instead of the normal way of making fence so that we could go out there and eat grass. We don't have any idea what he is doing. So while we were watching, who comes along but that so-called fancy "Fiesta" filly, who is only a year old and lives next door in the rustic paddock. I think she is trying to take my place as the most glamorous pony. She was strutting around over there with her little Elf friend, all "Look at me!" and trotting back and forth and acting like her spots make her better than everyone else. Well, let me tell you, no one cares about big white spots on ponies. They are just hard to keep clean. And anyway, her mane is all in her eyes and flying everywhere. So there. Just because she is young and silly isn't going to make her glamorous. Right?
