Hiya Sweetie!
My goodness, what a fun but exhausting day today! Got up early, did my usual chores plus the added chore of dumping my black water tank, had breakfast, then piled Lola into the truck and met at Jo's just before 9:30 so she could play around with Jo's dogs for a few minutes. Headed out soon after, first stop at the UPS store to drop off a package (returning some pants that I ordered), then to her bank, then to the tack store where I bought a new halter for Flash and a new muck bucket for water, then we went to the World Equestrian Center, and had lunch at the little Mexican restaurant there. OMG, what an incredible meal! Taco salad, which was amazing and totally different from anything else I've ever had, splurged on a margarita and had a totally decadent dulce de leche cheesecake. WAY too much food, I won't be eating again until tomorrow, probably midday! We walked around a bit through the various arenas, seemed like mostly practice, but we did managed to catch a couple of the young riders in the Level 6 Hunter Jumper competition in the main outdoor arena. Finally left there about 2:00, headed to Tractor Supply in Dunnellon where I picked up feed, which will save me a trip next week, and finally, we decided to squeeze in a quick trip to the U-Pick strawberry farm before they closed at 4:00, and just made it in time to get in and out. What fantastic strawberries!! Huge and ruby red and delicious! Yeah, I know, I was stuffed already, but I had to test one, right? I picked just under two pounds, which will be plenty for me, and Jo picked over five pounds for her and Jeff. Got back to her house around 4:30, and I finally made it back to camp about 5:15. Fed the horses, put on Flash's new halter, carried my feed into the trailer, and finally, CRASHED for the evening, exhausted! I'm sure I'll sleep well tonight! And Lola will, too, busy day for her. A wonderful day! Love you, my darlin'! Good night!
