Well, it has taken me forever to finally getting around to actually writing. My life is hectic. I figure instead of jumping right into current life, I will give the story of the last few months since I bought Bryce. The past months have been a huge ride for me and everyday seems bring on a new (not always wanted) surprise.

I freaked out and drove up to the barn to luckily find the vet already at the barn. We got it all cleaned out and stitched up. The cut ended up being about 3 inches in length and depth, just barley missing any muscle. The end result was beautiful, 15 blue stitches and two months off.
My friend and I searched and cleaned out everything in his pasture that afternoon to find NOTHING that resembled anything that could have punctured him that bad...
