This message is from: ewig...@mindspring.com "Corrine, you are NOT a wimp! In your neck of the woods you have much more moisture in your air and I would be freezing to death there at those temps!" No, she's a wimp! You know I'm kidding, right Corinne?!!! :-) :-) :-) It's really dry in the Seattle area with these cold temps, and the snow is so fluffy you can't make snowballs. Not our typical wet white stuff (or wet liquid stuff, which I'm really missing!). It's weird having such cold temps, isn't it, Corinne? My horses seem to be doing ok, and since the paddocks are frozen and I can't clean them daily, it's good that I'm getting some exercise carrying water to the nine equines in residence. Everything is rock hard and bumps are hiding under the pretty snow - not even good for a cold weather ride! Zany!
As for the horse thief, check the California laws for livestock rustling; it may still be on the books as it is in some places. It's different from (and more serious than) simple theft (non-animals). Just a thought. Quick perimeter of electric fence (be sure it's posted as hot on the fence line) may deter this crazy human. She sounds awful, and sad and in need of mental health help too. If your neighbors who share the easement want to press trespassing charges, the more the merrier may help convince the local law enforcement that this is a serious, dangerous situation. Restraining order? I sound crazy, I know, but this situation calls for it, IMHO.
