Washing Horses


Our big girls went to a neighbor's house this morning to learn about horses and their care.  It was blazing hot, so Mrs. L. and the girls washed three horses.  Needless to say, those horses, with their coats of hair, were feeling the heat!

Here is what Naomi wrote about the experience:


I went and helped wash horses down the street at a neighbor’s house today.

                First, we sprayed the horses with water from a hose. I wouldn’t like being sprayed with cold water for a shower, but the neighbor said the horses actually like it. Then, we scrubbed them with soap and water. Finally, we rinsed them off again. Then we started spraying each other, not the horse.

Needless to say, we got wet.

I think we can say that a good time was had by all.  Thank you so much, Mrs. L.!
