Mud Slide Slim and the Blue Horizon

It's been raining again in Southern California. The song that says it doesn't has had to give way to some old James Taylor ( see the title).
The Rescue is on a ridge coming out of Modjeska Canyon and the ridge is all clay and rocks. The clay is very red and in this weather very clingy and muddy. Pity the poor horses, although they don't seem to mind much. The 4 horses we have at the moment, including a nice Appaloosa, sometimes stand in the rain even though they have plenty of cover.

We took in some more dogs last week, including a chocolate toy poodle and a cocker spaniel. Both will make great pets, but the rate of adoption has fallen fast during the recession so we will have to try harder, and look after them longer.

The black goat continues to find ways out of the corral! Not doing any harm but just have this desire for order in things and he's supposed to be in the corral. He doesn't listen when I tell him.,
