Saturday, May 31, 2025 – Busy Day For Ride, Slow Day For Me

Hey Babe,
Had an excellent night sleep, up before the alarm, fed the horses and Lola and headed over to the volunteer area where breakfast casseroles were waiting. Literally ended up sitting around all day with nothing to do but eat the voluminous amount of snacks sitting around and talking to other staffers and volunteers, mostly with the vets. But in the case of ride management, an uneventful day (other than the completion of the horses and riders) is a good thing. No real emergencies, nothing that needed to be handled, all very well done. I did have one of the vets come over and check on Flash, who is still pinning his ears back and keeping his head against the tree, but everything checked out, no fever, good gut sounds, everything was fine, so I'm thinking maybe he's just depressed standing on a highline or something. Stuck around for dinner, the awards ceremony and the raffle (I won a nice bottle of body wash), then left as the band was starting, taking two young gals with me who wanted to see how my highline was set up. Now the day is done, I'm more than ready for bed. Weird, it seems sitting around doing nothing is just as tiring as having a busy day! Anyway, bed shortly! Good night, my darlin'! Love you!
