As we have an appointment Wednesday at the Open Range manufacturer to have them do some body work on the RV (we had a tire tread come off and tear up a long section of skirting), I found a place fairly close by that could accommodate us and the horses. We left Deam Lake by 8:00, and other than stopping once for fuel, we had another uneventful drive to Circle J, which is literally just a block into Michigan, and about 20 minutes from the RV place. We ran through some rain, but not enough to ruin the few bales of hay and alfalfa I still had in the bed of the pickup, and arrived at the same moment our hosts did, right at 2:00. They welcome us warmly and we were set up quickly. We had our choice of paddocks, so we put them in one that had a pretty good stand of clover, hoping that Clio would eat enough of that to help stop her downhill weight spiral. We’ve added a lot more commercial feed to her diet in an effort slow her weight loss down, and that seems to be helping, but sometime in the next couple of days we need to find some weight builder supplements to get her back on the weight gaining side of the scales. Definitely not doing to bother setting up the satellite dish here, too short term to worry about. Hubby did have to rewire his plug because we got a fault from the inverter that the polarity was reversed on the 30 amp plug we had available to us, but one that was done, we settled down for the afternoon. Hoping for another good night sleep, and a restful day tomorrow, before things get hectic again later in the week.
