Second Annual Caroling Party


You are cordially invited to attend 


Fenway Bartholomule's 
Second Annual Muletide Caroling Party

in Wickersham, Washington
on the afternoon of Sunday,
December 18th at 1 PM. 


Bring hats, mittens, scarves, your most festive seasonal outfit, and a snack or drink to share after the caroling if you so desire. This will be an outdoor activity. I'll be decked out in sleigh bells, garlands, and a fuzzy red hat! Dino, last year's co-host (a.k.a. the Rental Reindeer) is sending a small emissary in the form of Jack Jack, the world's cutest mini. Additional well-behaved and leashed pets are invited. 

My FarmWife will provide copies of a few common Christmas carols, but after last year she realized we'd better practice in advance. Come bray with us on the afternoon of Sunday, December 11th at 4 pm for a rehearsal at our home. This will be an indoor activity, and I'll sit it out. I am already an expert singer. 

If you have a favorite carol, please email a copy of the lyrics to FarmWife poste haste! Otherwise, she's going to stick to common, upbeat tunes. The slow, ranging ones were a bit disastrous last year, and this is coming from a guy who sounds like a cross between a peacock and a dying woman. 

Muletide greetings to you and yours!

Here are the Cloud Dog's X-Rays

Here, for your edification, are the X-rays of dear Paisley's leg. There is, apparently, no new break (since his Monday siezure) but there is, of course, a great deal of abnormality caused by years of living with a shortened ulna. His pronounced lameness, the vet says, may temporarily improve. Unlike me, Fenway Bartholomule, poor cloud dog can't expect much in the way of a full recovery.   Not having the $$$$ for surgery to fuse the joint, we are working on making some sort of rigid splint to support the limb and prevent further degeneration. That is, the humans (with their space-age material inventions and their opposable thumbs) are working on making a splint; I am working on giving cloud dog brayful looks of support and encouragement every time he totters into the yard to relieve himself. As always, he fears me (me?!) and keeps his distance.  Ears to you,  Fenway

Saddle fitting nightmare

I wonder if they had to pay a saddle fitter to tell them the Schleese didn't fit. FB http://www.besthorsestuff.com/ShowAd/index.php?id=4deed0d102f85 For Sale: 18 inch Schleese Jes Elite dressage saddle with Flair Air panels.  This saddle is in exceptionally good, like-new condition with the exception of needing repairs to the front left air bag.  Our Schleese saddle fitter (at the May 28, 2011 fitting) quoted the repair cost at $75-$150. The tree is currently set to "wide" and can be fully adjusted by a saddle fitter.  See the Schleese website for more details. Asking $1200 OBO, a significantly reduced price compared to the current market value of $2000 for the same saddle in pristine, like-new condition. NOTE:  The "saddle rack" is not for sale.  Heehee! Please contact us for more details, serial numbers, questions, or pictures of the saddle.  This is very nice, quality, comfortable and correct saddle for a fraction of the cost, even after the r...
