For the record, I wanted to go for a hike today since it's Black Friday, we all have the day off, and the weather is good. The boys, however, decided they would rather fight, so instead of hitting up a state park, we all trudged out to the barn to start making some kind of sense of what's out there. We found lots of shit (literal) that the boys hauled out to the back of the pasture, where Max also found a whole bunch of spiky brambles. We also found a truly astounding number of empty alcohol bottles, and one full bottle of schnapps. I'm going to assume it was some kind of teenage rebellion in the family of the former owners, otherwise we might have the first archaeological evidence of horses with drinking problems.
There's still a loooong way to go, but two of the four stalls are now cleared out (well, one of them is holding my collection of blow molds, but at least they're neat and organized). The rest might have to wait for spring, because there is a ton of trash out there, and we only have so much room in the bin each week. It's a start, though!
