Bent Rail Ranch Rescue and Sanctuary

We survived Tropical Storm Hilary!! It was pretty crazy at times though. Before the center arrived the rain was heavy but I was still able to do chores. When the center came in things started to get interesting. All the animals started to let me know they were not amused. In CA we are not required to provide shelter for livestock. I absolutely do not support that. Even though we always provide shelters the little boogers don’t use them. 🙄😂. When the back end came in then the fun started. Of course it was feeding time and the horses will let you know if you are running late. The rain was so hard that while making salads for Sharlet and Sewfee I had to stay inside longer. I then made a run for the trailer. The horse feed was inside so it was easy to prep but going out wasn’t an option. I literally stood in the trailer holding the door closed for an hour!! Heavy rain and lots of wind continued but I had to make a run for it. The horses and goats were finally fed and very grateful. I am happy that with a bit of trenching the stall waters flowed into the field. Definitely an experience. 😊
