Hi Darlin’,
A good night sleep, a lazy morning, then I headed off the Williston to a big feed store up there where I picked up 10 bales of pretty nice coastal hay for $7.99/bale. More than I’ve been paying, but not bad for Florida prices. They also carried Nutrena so I was able to get Senior and Perform as well. I didn’t need the Balancer, I’d already stocked up on that, so I’m good for awhile. I went shopping for essentials at the Winn-Dixie, then got back to the ranch before 2:00. I’m staying at a place about 1.5 miles south of the trailhead where we stayed last year, with a couple that I met last year who are good friends with the organizer of the endurance ride that I’m here to help with. It’s a good example of making a lot of good use out of a small amount of space, and would be exactly the kind of thing brother Jeff could do on his place if he ever gets it cleared out enough. I’m tucked away in a nice quiet corner with the horses in a paddock right next to me, and their dump, which isn’t set up to drive to, only to haul with a portable sewer cart, is close enough to me where I think I might even have enough hose to reach it, which would be a great convenience. I put the hay under the gooseneck with the skirting around it, stashed all the feed in the back of the trailer, and then relaxed for the rest of the day. I’m starting to feel better, recharging my batteries a bit, and I’m hoping to get a ride in tomorrow, as it’s going to be in the low 70’s. I think I’ll take Apollo, just because I need a nice relaxing ride to see how my knee is doing, hopefully it won’t be a setback. Binge-watched some more of my Hallmark series, now I’m ready to call it a night. Love you, sweetie! Good night!
