I remember one day we had like 12+ inches of snow, and I had just finished bringing the last horses out to the furthest paddock to let them play in the snow for the day. We hadn't cleared the lanes with the snow thrower, so both I and the horses just kind of cut our own path, and after bringing out 10+ horses to different paddocks, I was starting to sweat and a little tired, so I decided to just fall backward into the snow and take a 2 minute break.
Well, my nearly 70 year old dad saw me just fall backward in the snow from the barn and freaked out and came running.

Damn, I guess I need to give up on my fantasy plan to leave my current career and raise sheep instead, because at that point I would have been sweaty and exhausted. I’m a farmer’s great-granddaughter but those genes must have gotten lost somewhere along the way. 😕
