Hiya Sweetie!
I did have a good night sleep, and had a busy day. After chores and breakfast, I saddled up Flash and we headed out for what I had intended to be about twelve miles, but I took a wrong turn and ended up on the wrong trail, and decided it was getting late (and I had a lot to do yet), so I decided to just hop on Trail 10 take a nice sprint home. Flash had been kind of sluggish for a lot of the ride, but when we turned for home, he found his mojo, and we ran very quickly the last two miles back to camp, which I figured was a good finish. I wish I could describe that fantastic fragrances that we’ve been experiencing here, so many trees and flowers in bloom. Sometimes I can’t even see them, I can just smell them wafting over us, really lovely. Lola had a good time too, but crashed as soon as we got home, of course, especially considering that long final run. Got them both squared away, then headed into town, first to the tire shop to drop off the rim, since my new tire had arrived today, then to the post office, where they claimed they didn’t have my package, that it should be at the main post office, but I couldn’t read the tracking number until later when I got it from James, and according to that, it WAS at that branch, and had been since that morning! Didn’t find that out till it was too late. Went to the feed store to stock up on this alfalfa/grass mix hay, a bit expensive at $9/bale but they’re very heavy bales, so I’m thinking they’ll last for several weeks, and by then, all the new first cutting will be in and hay will be cheap and easy to find, which it’s not right now. I could have gotten new hay for $5/bale, but I would have had to drive nearly 40 miles each way to get it, so it wasn’t worth it. Went back to the shop and picked up my tire, then headed back to camp, with a quick stop at Big Lots on the off chance they might have a more comfortable recliner, no dice. Got the tire out but couldn’t get it up on the spare tire rack yet, figured there was no point in struggling if I’m going to have help coming (the welder) in the next couple of days. I also managed to load all but the last load of hay in the trailer, but I got scratched up and covered with hay in the process. Had to fill up the truck with water again, filled up the RV tank in the process, changed a fuse out for the cigarette lighter, it hasn’t been working properly for charging my phone (though the one on the driver’s side still isn’t working), finally settled down to dinner and a movie! Ready to get this day over with! Love you, darlin’! Good night!
