Friday, January 24, 2025 – Another Busy and Productive Day

Hi Babe,
Got at text early from Rick telling me that everything was frozen, so sleep in. We're filling water troughs today, so water was the key! But after telling me that (and me doing it!), he showed up about 15 past the original time we were going to meet! I was barely up at that point! Anyway, I rushed around, fed the horses and Lola, buttered a couple of pieces of bread and off we went. Seems they decided to do a burn right in the middle of one of the vetting areas, so we panicked and started trying to figure out how to mitigate the problem. Turns out they were only doing 85 acres, and because it's been so wet this week, they never could really get it started (duh...). Panic over, we filled all the tanks, which took until nearly 3:00. Then I went about cordoning off the area that we need to use in Black Prong for vetting until it was time for me to drive down to Tidewater for dinner and the ride meeting, and to pick up some stuff for Jo, so she will have it when she gets here on her way to doing the 50 mile ride. Got back at the tail end of dusk, just managed to get the horses fed and the water turned off before dark. Managed to watch a little TV, take my hot tub, shower and now heading into bed. Another early start and busy day tomorrow! Love you, Darlin'! Good night!
