Its only April 9th and I have had it with all the mud! I called a friend that does "dirt moving" and had him come over to take a look at the mucky situation. Bob took one look at the paddock and said "We didn't clean this up last Fall, did we? Then he added "I'm putting you on my calender now, for next Nov." Bob started moving and removing muck, and worked on it for a day. He had another job to go to, so will be back on Saturday. He has a bit more to remove, then will add gravel, and top that with some kind of sand and clay mix. The horses noticed the difference immediately. I don't have to "make them" go into the paddock in the morning. They also are moving around the entire paddock instead of just the area on the hill that was dry. Unfortunately, it was too late for one of Eva's front shoes. It became a victim of "The Sucking Mud"--and she just had her shoes put on last week!
