Ísólfsstaðir

As I already told you before, the ridinghorses spending their vacation at Ísólfsstaðir. It's not just our horses there, but those of Magnús and Bjössi, too. Today it was time to move Maggi's horses and we decided to take 2 trips and take Aldís on the second, too.

But as things never turn out the way you expect, we had to do a lot of other things before taking the first trip to Ísólfsstaðir. Driving to Maggi's field we spotted 3 loose horses, to be precise a reddun mare, a bluedun mare and a red foal. Our horses! Fortunately they weren't close to the road, just grazing and not on the run. When Vordís realized, we were on our way to catch her, she decided it would be safer to move slowly away and started walking towards the riding hall, passing it. I sneaked on the other side and was lucky to get in front of them. It looked like she was relieved to see me, came and allowed me to grab her easily. Magnús took Aldís and Fönix just followed. In the meantime, Ingólfur checked the fence and repaired both gates. We have no idea what happened, but I wouldn't be surprised if somebody was hunting nearby and the horses got scared by the gunshot.

With our horses securely in their fence again, we grabbed Þokkadís and Ísak, realizing, that Glói was hurt and bleeding a bit. So we left him in the field and called the vet.

Ísak and Þokkadís were happy to go to the big pasture and meet the others. Glói on the other hand had to go to the stable, where the vet sewed his wound and gave him antibiotics. He'll have to stay inside for a few days until the stichtes get removed.

What a day!
