Hiya Sweetie,
Can't believe it's been five years since you moved on to the undiscovered country. Miss you!! The pic is from your last ride at Oak Mountain Alabama on Nov. 19 2019. You were feeling really good that day! It was a lovely ride. Sigh. Was busy today running around. I had to take the small horse trailer all the way over to the east side of Ocala to get someone from the DMV to certify that the title I've had since 2011 in TN was actually for that trailer, because the VIN number was on a label that had completely faded out. It's a problem I've been dealing with since I first brought it to Florida, but I figured I had better get it finally straightened out. Would you believe that guy found a metal plate right on the hitch that still had enough legible numbers to believe me? I can't believe no one else, including me, never found that before, but this guy knew what he was doing. Anyway, I got the paperwork I needed, and walked over to the tax office next door, but the line was so long I gave up. We made a stop at the Walmart in Ocala for fuel and a few essentials, then I headed to the new hay store that opened in Williston, they have some spectacular, super green coastal they're getting from Live Oak, which the horses are absolutely loving, so I went to get another 21-bale bundle. Unfortunately, while I was at Chelle's, I stored the hay where Apollo could reach it, and he ate more than his fair share, so my nearly month supply dwindled down to about two weeks, the pig. Now that we're back at camp, I can at least control his intake a bit more! Then I went to the tax collector in Williston, which had no line at all, as usual, and got my new license plate. I can't believe how expensive vehicle registration is here. In TN, I didn't even have to register a horse trailer and all, and my other vehicles were about $26 a year, where here it's in the hundreds! That little horse trailer, which I'll only use about 4-5 months out of the year, cost me almost $150! Highway robbery, literally. Anyway, got that done, got back to camp, put away my groceries, stored my hay under the gooseneck, and spent the rest of the afternoon answering a long email from my supervisor. I've been finding a few issues with my trailer repairs as well. I noticed I still have dripping from under my kitchen, there are gaping openings from the cuts they made in the basement covering (which I specifically told them not to do, but they did it anyway), my ice-maker worked for about 12 hours but is now jamming, and there's a terrible smell from something that died under my refrigerator, which I can't find, so I'm thinking it got trapped between the floors or something. Guess I'll be calling the trailer place tomorrow! Finally settled down for the evening, watched an interesting sci-fi film, had my hot tub, which was reminiscent of winter nights in TN on our deck, though there wasn't snow (though it felt cold enough!), be in bed shortly! Good night, babe! Love you!
