Do you like the new fence?

Though I've lived outside of the United States for better than ten years, I do miss my country. I'm grateful though that I'm able to weather this pandemic. Were I in the States job security and healthcare would be at the forefront of my mind. South Korea has very affordable healthcare even without insurance. With insurance a visit to the doctor is under three dollars copay. Without insurance it's about sixteen dollars. I was shocked to learn this because I have actually been charged many times the uninsured  price.

 Anyway, isn't that a lovely photo above? It's what the farm looks like now. All it is is a white fence. We still have the electric fence to keep the horses off of it because this stuff bends really easy. But, it looks lovely.

If you exclude the mud, you can see what the fence looked like before. Of course, it's hard to do a direct comparison because of the sun, but I chose this one for Thor continuity. I just love that face.

I tell him everyday he is my favorite. I tell Thunder, Super and Panther the same thing. I lean in, an whisper, "Don't tell anyway, but you're my favorite." They smile in their horsey way and follow me about as unless there is hay or it's nap time.

Warwick Schiller said that horses can only understand 7 words. We know Pan understands I Love You. Thunder's favorite word is "Thunder!"  Everyone knows "Good Boy/ Girl" but Thor really loves to hear it. And even if they don't understand "You're my favorite," or "Did you sleep well?" they do seem to enjoy being talked to.

There is this meme on Facebook about how you know you don't have much of a social life when your life doesn't change much with the virus. I guess that's true because my social life involves a lot of one way conversations.
