Mine is getting so wet and slippy, when will it ever dry out?!
More heavy rain due by Friday here , it's just ruined my summer paddock completely :(
 
Ours are not too bad, given the streams that run under them and the rain we have had, luckily the horses are staying up top where the grass is and not churning up a path to the barn, at one point I was feeding them their supplements in the field.
Buttercups are the main problem
 
My land at home is on a hill with the highest point towards the middle so it drains well and I have hip high grass :/
 
Ours aren't too bad either. There are only two girls in it though and it's fairly big. It's on a hill so seems to drain well.
 
Mines fine so far they are on a well grazed section waiting for the other 5 acres to be cut and baled- IF IT EVER DRIES UP!!!

I have my 1st ODE next month and could really do with being able to ride in the field and do some canter work as I'm limited to lanes other wise and could do with upping the fitness now!
 
The walkway from stables to field was flooded rather effectively on the weekend but is drying out... Big (current) field is ok the one for late summer is boggy as heck...

Like Flertygerty, buttercups are everywhere...
