Sorry for the delay in posts! A lot of cool stuff has happened during the month of January, so we'll let this blog entry cover the first few weeks of 2013. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The first part of the month was cold--but dry!--and we had the usual weather-related concerns. Cameo seemed to need some extra grain and attention, so she came to live with Rosa inside. Cameo is in her late twenties, and she is relishing all the activity and food inside the main barn! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/6-1-2010/DSC02495.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/6-1-2010/DSC02495.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">In this picture, Delilah and her pals are eating from a 575-pound round bale covered with a slow-feed haynet. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Notice how the haynet is connected to some boards on the ground. That is an invention by our fabulous volunteer, Doug. It was a little time consuming attaching the hay net to the bale every time one needed to be replaced. Jim told Doug how he could use a contraption to help cover the bale. Doug suggested an idea, and it worked. We call it the "Doug net."</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It turns out that Doug has been quite busy coming up with ways to help Hytyme this month. Doug thought we needed some new safe tying areas in the arena. We use <a href="http://www.blockerranch.com/index.php?cPath=24">Blocker Tie Rings</a>. It turns out that Ted Blocker lives in Estacada! Ted Blocker has toured with Clinton Anderson and is a real proponent of natural horsemanship methods. Doug contacted Ted Blocker, and he came out to the barn! He donated three extra Blocker Tie Rings, and now we have lots of safe places to tie horses available around the property. Thanks, Ted!</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/6-1-2010/Doug%20builds%20cross%20tie%201-28-13/DSC02523.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/6-1-2010/Doug%20builds%20cross%20tie%201-28-13/DSC02523.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Speaking of tying, Doug came up with another excellent addition to the barn using the Blocker Tie Rings. In the above picture, fabulous volunteer Diane and Natasha model Doug's latest invention--crossties! It's a huge help to have the crossties available with new lighting in the main barn. Thanks, Doug! </span><br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Diane is working with Natasha, Isis, Vanilla Bean, and Abby. All are doing great! Speaking of which, Diane and Doug have been able to work with Yuma, one of our long-term residents who is very fearful of people. Great job, guys! Thank you for taking on the most difficult horses as projects and getting them ready for adoption!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">This weekend, we had our friend Dr. Rosario do teeth floating for Hope and Dallas. Both older mares needed to have their teeth fixed so they could enjoy all the benefits of their hay and grain. Dallas also had an eye injury to treat, and after a round of antibiotic ointment, she'll be fine! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">More to come soon! We have lots of exciting upcoming events. Here's a video our friend Michelle made of many of the drum and rescue horses at Hytyme. It's a neat video! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUxOPysDk8Q&feature=youtu.be">Sunday at the Barn</a></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Spring is coming soon, too!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It's been a sad week at Hytyme. We lost one of our original equine residents, the wonderful Coal. In his former life, Coal was a hunter-jumper pony, and he arrived at the rescue dyed black to disguise his grey hairs and obvious age. He also had a heart murmur. He was totally devoted to two horses and a donkey during his tenure at Hytyme: Masquerade (pictured above and below), Old Christy, and Rosa. Coal was probably at least thirty years old, and he'd been doing so well this past year thanks to a personalized feeding system. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> He was a good friend, and we'll all miss him forever. What a good horse--a true character. Goodbye, Coal.</span><br />

Where has the time gone? Our last post was all the way back in September...things are looking mighty different at Hytyme since our last update. It was dry and dusty back then...now it feels like a typical Oregon winter. The mud is back...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Luckily, thanks to Katie's research, we've found a fantastic new way to feed the Hytyme horses. We're using small-hole haynets, and it is definitely cutting down on the wasted hay. The horses really seem to enjoy having something to do in their stalls. What a great idea!</span><br />

They also made a wonderful donation. Katie Zimmer, one of the students on that 2010 visit came to Hytyme with her mother. They collected over $70 in donations and went to Burns Feed to buy us some much needed items! Shampoo, wormer, horse treats, hoof picks, and more! Katie is now a fifth grader, and she and her mom will be volunteering again in the future. Thank you so much!</span><br />

We've had a great stretch of warm weather, but fall is on the way. All the hay for the winter has been delivered, the horses are getting fuzzy, and the leaves are starting to turn. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Things are great at the barn! The Hytyme Drum horses did very well at the Oregon State Fair last month, and we're looking forward to the arrival of Alex's horse as a new boarder. Jim's been working hard on the area behind the arena. It was filled with weeds, chunks of concrete, and dirt left over from the arena's construction. Now it looks like this:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Despite the small signs that fall is on the way, it's been extremely hot and dusty for the past few weeks. We're not complaining just yet--the mud will be back before we know it! There are also several fires around the northwest contributing to our hazy skies. Here are some scenes from Hytyme over the past few days. Lots of horses, lots of dust!</span><br />

We lost one of our original rescue residents, the very sweet and elegant Juliet. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Those of you who have been to the rescue might know the story of Juliet and Tempest. If not, h</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">ere's a memorial for Juliet written by Jim:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">"</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Here lies Juliet. Became very ill on August 1st 2012 and had to be relieved of her misery. Juliet's best friend was Tempest who has been with her since both were picked up at a feed lot over six years ago. Have no idea if they were together before the feed lot. Tempest was almost blind then and can just see shadows now. Juliet was not only Tempest's eyes, but she was also her body guard. Up until about two years ago they were both in the big pasture with 20 to 40 horses. Heaven help any horse who got close to Tempest. Juliet was like a mare protecting her foal. We will all miss her. She was a good, a very good horse and friend."</span><br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Jim put Tempest in with Braveheart, and all seems well tonight. We hope these two can have an equally rewarding friendship. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It's Coal!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Coal has been at Hytyme for a long time. In his former life, he was a hunter/jumper pony. In the last few months, Coal seemed on the decline. However, with careful feeding from Katie, Sam, and Kassi; Bowen therapy from Katherine; and regular grooming by Vickie, Coal is feeling (and looking!) better than ever. </span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-56859724902364913692012-05-17T13:29:00.002-07:002012-05-17T13:29:24.213-07:00May 17th, 2012<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hello again! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's a neat slideshow of the road to the barns taken from April 4th until May 15th. Hytyme Lane, spring to summer:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/Hytyme%20Lane/?albumview=slideshow">http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/Hytyme%20Lane/?albumview=slideshow</a>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Things are just fine at the barn! The horses are in from the big field to let the grass regenerate for a while. Yesterday, Dr. Rosario was out to do a wellness exam for Turk (who is moving to Colorado in a few weeks!) and Hope (who has not been feeling so well). Dr. Rosario also performed some chiropractic adjustments on Katie's horses, Story and Charm. It was a nice day out at the barn yesterday (although the horses who saw the vet may feel differently). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">More to come! </span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-61300877929759502982012-05-10T23:30:00.001-07:002012-05-10T23:30:26.152-07:00May 9th, 2012<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hello again! More news--hopefully, with the upcoming summer weather and potential upcoming adoptions, we'll be posting much more regularly on this blogs. It's been a fairly uneventful few weeks out at the rescue (which is good!). We're slowly drying out from our winter mud, and all the horses are shedding their heavy coats. Everything has been just fine otherwise! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's a picture of Katie Mae snoozing in the barn. That's Braveheart, checking in on her. The big field is open to many of the horses now. They all seem quite happy about that!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Katie Mae takes a nap:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We had some wonderful visitors yesterday. Chuck was there to trim hooves, and Nathalie, who wrote the essay about Hytyme last year, and her crew from the Oregon Episcopal School were out to volunteer. We owe them a big thanks! They mucked out all the stalls and washed the fence. Then they got to play with the baby drum horses, April and Derby. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here are some pictures of their time at the rescue:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Thanks again to the OES group--we hope you enjoyed your day at the barn! Thanks to all of our volunteers and friends, too! More updates soon! </span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-5135589435865078782012-04-04T20:21:00.000-07:002012-04-04T20:21:07.989-07:00April 4th, 2012<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And...we're back! Wow! It has been a long time since our last post!! Sorry for the delay! It hasn't been terribly eventful at the barn, which is always good. Since our last post, we have mostly just been battling mud and rain and snow. But spring is on the way! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Jim's camera had been broken, hence the lack of updates. Now that things are looking better at the barn, we should be back on track!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00046.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00046.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">All the regulars have been at the barn, braving the weather. In some big, exciting news, Kassi is finished with school! No more commuting from Corvallis or going to class; Kassi will be at the barn full time! Hooray! Congrats, Kassi! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">All the horses are starting to migrate towards the big field. Pretty soon, most of the horses will be out of the mud and into the pasture (except for some who are not allowed the spring greenery). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For the last few months, Spendy has been having a tough time with abscesses. She would get better, then get worse, then get better again. She's been indoors in a dry stall for the last few weeks, and Chuck was able to get some good work done on her hooves last week. We hope she's feeling better soon! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Lyric and Marquis have been battling abscesses as well, so they have been indoors for rest and recovery. Two of the draft mares are getting very close to their foaling dates--we're all getting quite anxious to see these new babies! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">On March 29th, the Explorers came out again to help groom horses. Here are some pictures of their wet and muddy day:</span><br />

Then we had snow. Then we had rain, rain rain! What a mess! There's been some local flooding in the past few days, as it is what happens when we get this much moisture. Hopefully everyone has survived the weather, and your homes have been dry and safe!</span><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's what it looks like out at Hytyme:</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/Rain%201-18-12/DSC00467.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/Rain%201-18-12/DSC00467.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

</div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As you can see from the above pictures, it's been quite damp out at Hytyme. You'll also notice the lack of horses--they're smart enough to stay inside when the Pineapple Express rolls through! If you look closely in some of the pictures, you might see a face or two peeking out into the rain. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For the amount of rain and snow we've had, everything seems to be going just fine (except the stalls have been pretty dirty each day since the horses don't want to venture outside all that much). As you can see, there's a little bit of water in the office area of Barn #1, but it's not so bad. It could be worse!</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Spendy is now back in the big field, and she's doing great! Katie and Jim felt sorry for Rosa, who was just hanging out in the rain. She's back inside with Coal now, and Coal gets taken out when it's graining time. Rosa can't share with him! Buddy was being a little unfriendly toward the horses in the big field, so he's in a stall. With all this rain, Jim has been feeding the horses indoors. Now the horses in the big field can come inside without having to worry about Buddy's bossy behavior. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Otherwise, not too much happening out here! It's been really muddy, so not many volunteers have decided to brave the weather and soggy mud. Just the regulars! Doug decided to work on gates while Jim was indoors, and when Jim came back, Doug had done a phenomenal job with repairs! Thanks Doug! Here's his handiwork:</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00459.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00459.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The horses in the first barn that he meets, in order, are Juliet, Tempest, Sue, Granny, Abby, Hope (in her stylish plaid blanket!), Cameo, Elvira, Braveheart, and Spendy. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We're all glad that Spendy is feeling better, too! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Yesterday, Jim picked up a ton of grain...literally. Seven barrels of grain from Union Mills in Mulino. Just getting these barrels of grain saves Hytyme over $200 in feeding expenses! </span><br />

Here are a couple more from yesterday and today!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/?action=view&current=20120107151032.mp4">Blog Video #1</a>--this is the one from yesterday. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Today, Jim made this video before heading out to the Blazers game: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/?action=view&current=20120108143906.mp4">Blog Video #2</a></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After filming, Jim took Granny's blanket off so she could enjoy the nice weather.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00454.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00454.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00455.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/DSC00455.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Granny is definitely one of the sweetest old horses around! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Last night, Jim got an email from a girl named Natalie. Natalie purchased Heart from the Silver Buckle Ranch, which is who adopted Heart last year. This weekend, Natalie is showing her at the Clark County Fairgrounds. She also rides Heart in barrels, and their fastest time is 19 seconds! What a great update! Congratulations to Natalie and Heart! We wish you all the best of luck, and we're so happy that Heart has a great owner like you!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here are some pictures of Heart:</span><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There is a third and fabulous picture of Natalie and Heart on our Facebook page. Check it out!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">For those of you who didn't meet Heart, she came to Hytyme with several other Arabians, Socks, Natasha, and Rose. Their owner was going through some hard times, and donated the four horses to us. Socks has found a good home, and Natasha and Rose are still at Hytyme. Heart is so lucky to have found a 14-year-old girl to be best friends with! We look forward to hearing about many more of their adventures!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, thank you to Diane for your generous donation to the horses! We really appreciate it! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/?action=view&current=20120105144402.mp4">Here is Jim's January 6th video</a>, and an update on happenings at the barn! Other things going on: Spendy's fetlock joint is still sore and swollen, so Alex and Jim made her a special pen to keep her from moving around too much. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Dallas has lost a little weight this winter, so we've moved her near Coal and will put her on the graining regimen. She'll love that! Coal is now in the last pen where Rosa was, and both Rosa and Shannon are back in the big field. Natasha and Lyric are both back in the big field as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's a picture of Jim's dump truck. It needs a name! Jim thought maybe it could be called "Big Red," which, coincidentally, was also Secretariat's barn name. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's a video blog entry from December 28th. You can see some of the horses from the big field having a snack inside the barn, like Peanut Butter Boy, Spendy, Delilah, and Olivia. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/?action=view&current=20111228140717.mp4">Here it is! </a> Welcome to our new volunteers, and also welcome back to Cathy, who is home in Portland from Reno. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, thanks to our new donors and sponsors, Megan and Kathy! We are so fortunate to have such caring supporters. We couldn't do it without you! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Our good friend Courtney Short and her Explorer Post 686 from Gresham came out to muck stalls and groom rescue horses. Courtney and her post have been coming to Hytyme since we started rescuing horses. What a way to end the year! Here are some pictures of our newly cleaned horses! Thank you, Courtney and Post!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Speaking of which, right before Christmas, Jim stopped at the post office to pick up the mail. Inside was a check from Nike and Global Giving, which matches Nike employees' donations, and it was for $817! Hooray! What a fantastic gift, and what a fantastic program! A million thank yous to Michelle, our favorite carrot lady who set up this program with Nike. Thank you so much! What a great Christmas! </span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-83349489649760070462011-12-24T10:04:00.000-08:002011-12-24T10:04:06.623-08:00December 24th, 2011<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! </span><br />

<br />
All is well out at the barn, and we had another awesome sponsor step up to help out Rosa this year. She also brought a bag of senior feed. Thank you to long-time Hytyme friend and adopter, Julie Hart! If you haven't done so, you must check out Julie's great kids' book about horse rescue--and it features Hytyme Equine Rescue! Here's the link to the Barnes and Noble page:<br />

Thank you again, Julie, for all your help and your generous donation!<br />
<br />
Also, Dr. Rosario from Eagle Fern Equine Hospital came by the barn to deliver a new 2012 calendar and a bunch of horse treats. Thank you, Eagle Fern!!<br />
<br />
So, we hope you all have a great holiday and enjoy the time with your families, both human and horse alike!Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-89062355237452063502011-12-21T21:17:00.000-08:002011-12-21T21:17:01.445-08:00December 21st, 2011<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Happy holidays from everyone at Hytyme! </span><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We've got a new idea for mixing up these blog posts. This one is from December 18th, and it's a <a href="http://s38.photobucket.com/albums/e117/HYTYME/5-29-10/?action=view&current=20111218124815.mp4">video update from Jim. </a></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It's been a fun week out at the barns with good weather! All the regular volunteers and boarders have been spending time with their favorite horses. Chuck came on Tuesday to trim feet. We've (humans and horses!) been enjoying the delicious treats donated last week. Chocolates, apples, horse treats--all delightful!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, for those of you who know Peanut Butter Boy, you know that he has a very sad tail. Well, it just might be growing...</span><br />

We've all been enjoying the dry weather (even though the temperatures have been very cold!). It's nice to have frozen mud instead of soupy mud. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's some recent news:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">We'd like to welcome several new volunteers. Bonnie and Chelsie came out and mucked stalls. They tackled Granny and Sue's stall, which is no easy task. Those big horses can sure make a mess! Also, Ana is a new volunteer as well, and she spent her first cold day out at the barn meeting the horses and getting a feel for the place. She is interested in working with Rose, a nice Arabian mare who desperately needs a human friend. Welcome, Ana, Bonnie, and Chelsie! We're glad to have you around! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Also, Emily from the Oregonian came out with carrots, took lots of pictures, and interviewed Jim for an upcoming article. She's also planning on volunteering, so we'll be very excited to see more of her out at the barn! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Kassi made up some wonderfully adorable Christmas cards to send to our sponsors. If you are interested in sponsoring a horse for $10 a month, please get in touch! Sponsorships make great gifts, too. You'll receive fun cards from your horse, and you'll also get frequent pictures and updates. Thank you so much to all our sponsors and donors, and thank you to new donors Brenda and Diana! We are just so thankful for all of your generous support. </span><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Look at this hay! What fun! This much-appreciated donation came from our new friend Therese Walker, an EAGALA certified Equine Specialist at Dream Acres Equine Center in Tualatin. Therese runs a horse-assisted therapy program at her farm. <a href="http://www.dreamacres1.com/default.html">Here's her website.</a>Thank you Therese, and we look forward to connecting with your organization in the future!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Deb and Naomi donated a lot of items from our wish list, including about ten bags of Allegra Senior feed, four large bags of horse treats, two gallons of shampoo and detangler, bunches of vegetable oil, a cordless electric drill, a socket set, and a basket of delicious snacks. Wow! What an amazing gift! We can't thank you guys enough! </span><br />

We couldn't be more thankful for our long-time and our new supporters. There's been an amazing outpouring of support and donations these last few weeks. We definitely couldn't do it without all of your help. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">A couple of long-time friends came out to the barns to bring blankets for Granny, Sue, Spendy, Shannon, and Chino. Debbie and Bonnie have been helping horses for many years, and they help all the horses and people they can. Plus, they work very closely with Scott Hanson at Sound Equine Options. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">What great presents for our horses! Here are some pictures of everyone tucked snugly into their new blankets:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Thanks again, Debbie and Bonnie! What great gifts, and what warm and dry horses!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Thanks again, too, to all our horse sponsors. Expect some mail from your sponsored horse very soon! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">We hope you all had wonderful Thanksgivings! More to come soon! </span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7538647082556494779.post-90905071239312252402011-11-20T12:37:00.000-08:002011-11-20T12:37:01.476-08:00November 20th, 2011<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Winter is definitely here! The last few days have been cold and wet, with snow levels dipping into the lowest elevations of the year! Luckily, all our horses have been moved into their winter housing. The big field has been blocked off, and this year feels much different than previous winters at Hytyme. There are only a few horses left in the big field! Some of the older horses have been moved indoors, and everyone is getting plenty of hay or senior feed as necessary.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">We've had the most amazing outpouring of support in the past few weeks! Thank you so much to our donors who have stepped up to sponsor our permanent residents! For only $10 a month, you can sponsor one of our older and distinguished residents. You'll recieve updates, photos, and videos. You can also arrange a time to meet your newest equine friend!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">So, thank you Karla, Teri, Debra, Patricia, Mary, Katharina, Claire, Dawn, Stephanie, Maureen, Michelle, and Madeline! Thank you as well to Nike, for your generous donation matching program! Thank you to the annonymous donors as well! This is a difficult time for our rescue, and we wouldn't be able to do what we do without your help and support. Our horses will be healthy and happy this winter because of all of you. Thank you again!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Here are some pictures of our sponsorable or available horses.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">One more update: we'd like to introduce some of our new supporters to our horses, and we'd like to meet some new potential volunteers. So, we're going to plan a day in December where we'll have a Hytyme Open House, and our friends new and old can come out and meet some horses, participate in some type of clean-up project around the barn, and enjoy their time out here in Eagle Creek. We will keep you posted for this upcoming event and more like it in the future! Thanks again from the horses and humans of Hytyme for all your continued support!</span>Hytyme Equine Rescuehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10691369126850516849noreply@blogger.com0
