OK Corral

We started our horse unit today for Large Animal lab and went to OK Corral. Supposedly it was only supposed to be a little over a half hour, but it took almost an hour to get there from school. Once we got there, only 2 horses were in the stalls for our class of 12. First, we groomed the horses. I was on brush duty, and holy crap! There was hair and debris flying everywhere. And the horse was groomed last week. It must be getting warmer if the horses are already shedding their winter coat. Once they were groomed nice and pretty, we cleaned their hooves which were filled with poop. It was kinda gross, but they looked a lot better after it was over. The last thing we did with the horses was aging by looking at their teeth. The first horse we guessed about 13 years, and turns out he was only 8. He must be a grinder cuz his teeth looked worn down a lot for an 8-year old. The second horse we guessed around 5, and DING DING DING. He was 5-years old. At least we got the age right for one of them haha And *gasp* we actually got out of class on time!! This never happens, usually because the speaker doesn't watch the clock and thinks none of us have a life outside of school. Because the teachers were the ones in charge today, we actually got out on time. So I have a little bit of time to relax before class. :)

btw...to keep the countdown going...8 days!!
