Hey Darlin',
Woke up to a chilly morning, in the upper 40's, but it's going to be another ten degrees colder tomorrow morning, supposedly, so I can't complain! Wrapped up in a turtleneck, several layers and my Alaskan parka, I got the horses fed, did my morning chores, then drove down to Tidewater to help out. First thing I did was help Jo crew her horse, the plastic shoes she puts on had a few loose fasteners (they glue on little fingers that grip the outside of the hoof), then she was off. Didn't have too much to do until the afternoon when folks started registering for tomorrow. Handled a bunch of little problems, like having to drag out Cheryl's printer to copy more Waivers because we out, and I had to make up a lot of the ride cards because they hadn't been prepared in advance. Folks came to collect their prizes in the afternoon, so there wasn't much of an awards ceremony (none, actually), and the ride meeting was short and sweet, though probably not real helpful for all but the most experienced riders. Oh, well. Not the way I would do things, but it's not my system. That said, I don't have plans to go in to register at 6:30 in the morning tomorrow, either, they'll just have to handle it without me, like they did this morning. Most folks got checked in, but there were still a few missing when I left tonight. Anyway, not quite so busy today, and there was a cold wind that had me keeping all my layers on, including my moose ear muffs and my Alaska parka, and even then I felt cold with the wind chill. Tomorrow I'm wearing long johns, huge gloves, and a wool cap! Brrrr! Anyway, got home around 7:00, fed and blanketed the horses, watched a one hour, skipped my shower, and am heading to bed shortly! Good night, babe! Love you!
