The horses of Monte Ruivo

 Tuesday 09/08/22

At last the horses were at the right place at the right time, taking advantage of the beautiful evening light for a photo op.

The aptly named Puppi, gas powered, puttering along, emitting a constant stream of methane gas.

Quizzy Branco, hoping she'll convince me it's time for more hay.

Poor downtrodden Galant, always bottom of the pecking order

Of course, it wouldn't be fair to neglect the other 'wildlife'.

You can see how the cattle have grazed the fields to dust.

Even though Molly loves the heat, she still has to seek out a cool spot 
in the heat of the day.

For this trip we also brought more staple food stuffs (like rice, tinned vegetables, bags of oats & long-life milk) so we're not having to cycle for food shopping as often, which means we can focus more on other things.  One of the advantages of repeat sits is that we know what to expect so can plan really well.

We're filling our days with exercise and multiple jobs on Bokkie.  Some of them are coming to an end so we'll post some photos showing the results soon.
