We slept in after our late night, then got ourselves organized to head home. Sheldon showered while I started packing, and he ran downstairs to move the truck around to the front of the hotel and bring a cart up. By 10:30, we were off having loaded up all our belongings.
Our first stop was to meet the meat-packer delivery man across the city, taking us in the opposite direction from home. We loaded up two animals’ worth of meat before hitting the road south. Tim’s was hard to find so McDonald’s it was — but really, fries for breakfast, LOL!
Sheldon navigated us south, with a stop in Red Deer for him to enjoy a sundae along the way. I had suggested soup or salad but ice cream always wins.
Our first stop in Strathmore was to Paetzs for unloading the one-and-a-half animals. We had a quick visit before the other fellow arrived to pick up one of the animals, then we headed over to Stouts to collect Harley.
We stopped for a beverage and a quick visit before heading home. A huge THANK YOU to Sharon and Darren for taking such excellent care of Harley while we were away! XOXO
Back at the ranch, I opened the winter pasture gate and closed the yard gate as we drove in, hoping the horses would head out to the hay pasture. Food won their attention, though, so they weren't too concerned about exploring. I tossed the chubby ponies some hay before we got busy unloading the truck.
There was a lot of meat to sort through! S weighed everything, I organized it and packed it into the clean freezer. It felt good to get it all put away and know we were stocked up again. This is 1/2 beef.
Harley got her raw food supper, and I worked on Sunday’s trail ride blog post. Matt sent a text from Hong Kong to reveal the surprise destination of their trip: Bali!! My biggest bucket-list destination! ❤️ Enjoy every minute guys!
Eventually, it was time for us to eat, but with very little thawed and ready to go, spaghetti was the easiest solution while the robot cleaned the floors.
I finished Sunday’s post and hit publish while we watched the CFR on the big TV. The Cowboy Channel's audio and video quality are pretty low quality, much better in person.
We tried to finish East of Eden afterward, but we were both too tired to make it through. After a busy CFR weekend, a long drive home and a freezer full of meat to put away, sleep was definitely calling!
You mention sound quality was not so good on Cowboy channel. Is that different than mine which is Cowboy +
