Monday, November 9, 2026 – Travel Day to Broxton Bridge

Pix to come!

Hiya Babe,
Woke up after a weird dream, then fell asleep a bit more, finally getting up around 7:30. Packing up and getting out of camp took a bit longer than I expected, partly because I had too much hay leftover (six bales!) so I had to figure out how to carry them and load them onto the truck, then I had trouble getting the electric fence down, because it was so dry when I set it up, I had to really pound them in with the rubber hammer, so getting them loose again took awhile. Plus it was a much larger paddock than I normally set up, more than twice the size, so I had a lot more posts to get out. I finally managed to leave camp around 10:30, and had an uneventful drive to Broxton Bridge, though it was three hours of mostly back roads, with only about 20 miles on the freeway, where I was able to find fuel at a BP station. Unexpectedly, the pump said I would get forty cents a gallon off if I joined their loyalty club, so I signed up and filled the tank, at the "low" price of $5.19! Can't wait for these prices to come down! Anyway, I arrived at Broxton just before 2:00, and was pretty well set up by just after 3:00. First thing on the agenda was laundry, of course! Trailmeister and photographer Becky P. invited me over for a much appreciated spaghetti dinner, and we chatted about what she needed help with tomorrow, which was essentially mapping out the combo trails so they could get a better handle on their distances. I will certainly welcome a job that requires me to sit at my computer for a few hours, I'm still tired from all the cleaning activity last week! Looking forward to a day off, though I won't get one until next week. Spent the rest of the evening getting the details of my mapping project, and managed to get one episode of Perception in, and will be heading off to shower and clean sheets forthwith! Good night, sweetheart! Love you!
