Another day at home

The Bay Wonder Mare(tm) continues to enjoy being at home. The first day she was home, she seemed to relax. Her entire body language was softer — as if it was safe for her to finally show just how exhausted she is. She has been getting out twice per day for good grazing while being lead on a leadrope.
