The morning was cool and overcast so both mares with their foals were left outside until later.
Diane and Mike invited us to breakfast at 8:30am serving Raber's thick slab bacon, farm fresh free range eggs, potatoes fried up with more bacon whole wheat toast with black raspberry jam, fresh squeezed orange juice and coffee. Then it was off to work. Mark started back on moving the manure while Mike and Karin came over to help cover Jenis. They rode over on Bunni and Mika, the 2 horses Mike will be taking to Colorado elk hunting in September.
French Fry was teased as today is the 14th day since she went out, usually we wait for 18 days but her owner would like her teased sooner. She was not in so Breyer was brought out and she is also not in.
The stalls were cleaned and the air turned on before bringing Jenis and her colt in.
Mike brought the IH tractor and mower so the pastures can be mowed. This job was started but not finished, just not enough hours to get everything done.
The kids were all coming for dinner so off to Sams to purchase ribeye steaks, corn, lettuce, mushrooms, Vandalia onions and fruit, lots of fruit. Blue berries, bing cherries, black seedless grapes and strawberries all looked to good to resist. Karin and mom joined us for dinner.
During the preparation a lady called from Belvidere wanting pictures of some of the female pups. Rhoda brought the 2 in that she was interested and pictures were taken of them and placed on the website.
We think they are the cutest most adorable puppies out there and we are not at all prejudiced, no, no not us!
Once Jenis was turned out it was time for us to turn in.
