Once again it is blazing hot. I know it is August, it is to be expected, but this high heat is going on 3 months now and the grass is tired and the ground is hard.
The bathroom remodel is coming along and I'm sure by next weekend it will be just a fading memory that we were showering in the horse trailer. Pinned in the bathroom door tonight, after moving it to the left about seven inches. The framing for the drywall is done. Whew!
I talked to an old friend today that I hadn't heard from in quite a while. Time and space have a way of distancing even the best of buddies. Long story short: she has two horses that are now retired and could be a good fit for our barn management plans. Tom likes to ride, all the time if he could, and he sometimes rides alone. I never worry about him out there on the trail because Skip is very reliable and Tom is a good rider. However, my little pony, if left alone, has a complete melt-down. He has broken two different types of electric fence, one of them twice, when Skip has left him. I don't want to fix the oak board fence and have an emergency vet call. Having two retired horses on-site all the time would be the perfect solution. The big barn won't be delivered for another month. We have time to think and talk about it. The horses' names are BabyDoc and Bandit. Can you make this stuff up?
