Hi Sweetie,
Well, today Flash and I drove over to Jonathan Dickinson State Park to do the (almost) final leg of our trail marking exercise. We didn't want to do it earlier because they have so many activities in the park we were afraid our markers would interfere, so we waited until this week. Being President's Day, it was much busier than I had anticipated for a Monday, but it didn't matter, we got the job done. Apparently, the horse camping area is mostly used up by a horseback riding concession that's in the park now. When I drove by, they had built a covered stall area, and all the horses were saddled up and standing around, waiting for their next go-around. I'm not sure which trails they use, but I certainly didn't run into them anywhere. Flash was pretty good, he was determined to canter and largo at every opportunity, but there was a LOT of water on the trail, not as bad as Corbett, but lots more than I've ever seen out there. I was glad I bought that GPS unit so I could follow last year's track, if I had had to do it with just a map I would have been in a real mess! Anyway, we got it done. It was really hot today, we're in a record-breaking heat wave, in the mid 80's and up, and you know how little shade there is out there, so we worked up a sweat. Was glad there WAS so much water out there, Flash certainly didn't get dehydrated! That took up most of the afternoon, and we got back at almost 4:00. Jeff was still working on his truck, he still is no closer to finding his mysterious knocking sound, even using a mechanical stethoscope. He was even disconnecting the transmission just so he could determine whether it's a motor or a transmission problem! He's so frustrated, he has so many other things to do, but as you know, he really needs his truck, so he's sticking with it. I was tempted to take a swim, as the pool is definitely warming up with all these hot days, but by the time I got done answering emails, it was kind of late. I helped Lola play with her GoDogGo machine for awhile, then took my shower early and settled down for a quiet evening, as usual. Love you, darlin'!
