Got off work early on Good Friday - went for a walk with April then riding with Tom at the AgPark. Fluffs was just stellar, what a great pony I have!! Gorgeous, beautiful day. Blooming flowers and trees, gentle breezes, grass and clover growing. What more could you ask for? Another beautiful day! Saturday morning was just as delicious as Friday's morning. This calls for a ROAD TRIP!
Went to Glen Rock, Pennsylvania, to the Penn Dutch Amish Market to see horse barns! We'll be needing one fairly quickly, so it is best to see them in person than just on-line or pictures in a brochure. I couldn't help but take oodles and tons of pictures! April had a pretty good time, too, walking in and out of all the barns, sheds, chicken coops, playhouses, cabins, etc., and watching the Amish workmen building a barn on-site. They were using a propane-powered fork-lift, cell-phones, assorted power tools, John Deere tractor and anything else you might use. I won't tell God they are sinning; times are tough all over, right? Time is money and we all need it.
The barn we want AND need is, naturally, the most expensive product they sell. It's the Taj Mahal of horse barns, with a hayloft, dutch doors for each stall and a tack/feed room. Five stalls, 10 x 12, with hay feeders and sliding gossip doors. That's what happens when you are born with a silver spoon in your mouth, and your horses were, too.
