What a busy past few days. I love it!! My sister and I left after she got off work on Fri. evening and went to VA to spend the weekend with our brother and his family. On Sat. we messed around their barn and horses for a while. He went and picked up a new horse on Sat. morning and this horse is massive. He is currently on the "fat farm" portion of the farm. My sister got on a horse for the first time in probably decades and rode in the round pen. On Sun. we went for a trail ride. Thanks to Gerald and Yvonne for a lovely experience. I had gone up in May and we rode 2 days. I haven't ridden in many years also until here recently and I am loving it. Patricia also loved it.
After leaving VA on Sun. afternoon we went by Winston Salem to see her son who is in Gov. School for the summer. Got home at 10 Sun. night.
Gerald, the brother in VA is a farrier and an auctioneer. He does a horse and tack sale 2x a month in Bennettsville, SC and Patricia and I both work for him at the sale. So Monday was a sale day. We had to be in Bennettsville at 5 p.m. Home at 2 a.m. and it was nice to have a friend call around 1:30 to see if I had made it home ok and was willing to keep talking to me until I got home if I needed it. I assured him that I was ok and he needed to go on to sleep since he had to be at work at 5:30 a.m.
Like I said a moving target is hard to hit, but it's not like there is anybody waiting who gives a happy rat's a@@ when I get home anyway.
