Had a wonderful night sleep in our nice and dry tent, only had a little transpiration on the wall of the tent when we got up. Didn't take long to get packed up and ready to leave, finally found a way to get up at 5:00 and be ready by 8:00 (kick Hubby out of the tent as early as possible), and after standing around for a while, we finally set out to the arena. Although less than two miles away, we did a lot of stopping along the way, taking until almost noon to get there. Further, we stood around a long time while the cows were herded around the arena, then finally each group had a half turn around the arena to the waiting crowd of about 700, we heard later. After we left the arena, we went directly to our van, where Hubby took care of the horses and I grabbed a box of books and headed to the registration RV where I set up shop. Thanks to a gentleman who helped me carry a box of books! Several hours and 25 book sales later, we finally packed it in. Hubby had nearly succeeded in getting out of the mud, but in the end he had to have a bulldozer help him out. We headed to Okeechobee where we picked up horse feed and grab a to go dinner from a Vietnamese restaurant along the way, arriving back at Brother Jeff's just about 7:00 as it was getting dark. Horses jumped out of the trailer and started grazing, and Hubby and I crashed into our recliners, where we intend to stay until we are fully recovered!
