road trip to Hanna

Up at 7:30, Shaina and I as well as Sheldon who came along to see the crop tour were out the door and to Tim's by 8. The car need petrol too and off we went on the scenic drive east. We made our 10 am appointments and were out before 11. We usually take a tour of our old houses too when in town. An early lunch was grabbed at Subway with an ice cap to wash it down on the road back home.

Britt stayed home to sleep in her last day off. She did clean Shaina's jeep. And a few other chores before we arrived before 2. The girls quickly changed and caught the horses to ride while Sheldon hit the couch for a nap. The 26 sunshine was warm but windy but this did keep the bugs away for the most part.

A cold beverage for the riders and Shaina was headed back to the city and Britt ran to town. I went out and scooped poop in the boys paddock.Holy cow in just a few days the two of them had an entire wheelbarrow! Sheldon helped load it and dump in the pit as he was up and out in the shop working on the mouse wrecked generator. I was trying to push mow weeds when a gal stopped to pick up a load of the dump trailer lumber.

Britt arrived back as she was heading out. She cajoled Sheldon into helping her finally mark out the polox field while I picked a couple loads of rocks from the paddocks.

company from my girls as I picked rocks

Britt then hit the shower, I moved the boys to the round pen along with filling the tub with water and setting up a salt tub and Sheldon back to the generator. He finished up as I finished putting another coat of azure blue on the projects. Another busy day in the life of five star ranch.
