Sometimes, I'd be better off / move forward, actually by doing nothing. A few days ago I took some money from savings and bought 2 more pipe panels and a canopy to attach to my gelding's pen and provide shade, shelter and give some more room... Jer and I set it all up, tied and taped the support shafts of the "roof" to the panels. Majic loved it. That night, the up-turned dome turned down, it just bent the other way. We staked the panels so they wouldn't move and cause the collapse. Then, the next day a storm rolled in. The wind made the canopy "invert" again. Majic seemed to find it all amusing. We took the roof part off and stored it inside. Yesterday, we had to move horses around for irrigation and we had to remove the uprights that held the canopy. Today, the irrigation water poured into that pen over a berm and I had to pull all of the stakes and open the pen more to cover a drier spot, then start moving sand into the pen... I would have accomplished more if I had just played with my toes for 2 days.
