Preparations have begun for the 2010 season! We are really excited about the upcoming season and are looking forward to getting back up on horses and to the many chores, etc. that the spring season brings. The girls and Miss Karen have begun the task of making the signs that we will have for sale in our on-line Utopia Ranch store and we are certain everyone is going to LOVE them! Kevin has just finished some updates to the site so go and check it out.
The "Clothing Closet" at the Higher Ground Baptist Church is now open! If you or someone that you know of has a need for clothing, coats, shoes, etc. all of the items in the closets are free. It is open from 8:30 to 10:30 on Saturdays and is available for emergency situations.
We had a bit of an accident here at the ranch yesterday. Joe was out in one of the paddocks putting out a fresh round bale, he noticed some baling twine that had gotten frozen into the ground and he attempted to pull it out, (concerned that one of the horses could get caught up in it). He stepped back, got caught up in the twine, and ended up falling. One of the horses that is in that paddock ( a rescue that is pretty scared)spooked and kicked Joe in the side and then in the arm. He ended up with two broken bones in his arm. I am hoping that our fellow horse loving friends that read this will please, please be careful if you work with or around your horses alone. These kinds of accidents happen so quickly. We are so thankful that God was watching over Joe; this could have been so much worse. Joe was here on the property alone. Off to the Orthopedic Dr. tomorrow.
Blessings,
Deb

Joe is in a non-conventional "cast". It really is more like a brace than a cast. 8 weeks to heal. They did a CT at the ER and did not find any other internal injuries. Thank God!
