First time outside! (well this year)

We finally got out to the outdoor today! I know that on a bunch of blogs that I read alot of you were outside a while ago, but we still have snow banks here! Lucas was great though, walked up with some of the other horses (we went up in a group to give the younger horses confidence) and it was like he was only out of the outdoor for a week, not almost 6 months. In fact all of the horses were good. Our outdoor runs alongside some of the turnout pens, so we were even expecting the young group of horses turned out there to want to play around (they wouldn't have seen horses up there last summer). But I guess there were enough older horses around that they didn't even kick up a fuss.

It was 15 degrees C here today so everyone's winter blankets were off, Lucas is back in his summer clothes for the summer! Well hes wearing his turnout with a sheet underneath it, but I think he's as happy as I am that we can finally start putting the winter stuff away.
