Sanna was loaded up right at noon today we pulled the truck up, Chuck Altic brought over 10 bales of hay and they were also loaded into the trailer and we were on our way. Casey's was the first stop, the truck had a low tire and Philip has our air compressor, then off to Chillicothe. When we drove up to her new home, the man that owns it looked at me and said, "I know you, you bought a hay conveyor from me 14 years ago." What a small world. We still have the hay conveyor, it has worked very well for us all these years.
Once Sanna was unloaded and lead very carefully over the ice into the barn we unloaded the hay. Sue, Sanna's new owner gave me a beautiful brand new blue halter she bought that was too small for Sanna. She also said she would be glad to email pictures of Sanna's 2010 foal. Halters are one thing we are usually short of even though each spring we try to buy them in bulk so I was thankful. For once the truck did not get stuck when I was backing the trailer in place.
Mark took the filled propane tank out to the farm, came back and told me that we HAVE to keep selling horses. This is the first winter we have wintered them at the farm and there is quite a mess. Hopefully this year will be dryer and when we can finally move some horses to Middle Grove, we can clean them up and lime the paddocks.
Once we were both home, it was off to Sam's to buy dog food. Of course, once there one doesn't just buy dog food. We ended up spending $149.89. It was stock up time on laundry detergent and dishwasher detergent along with nuts, almonds and mixed. Mark also wanted some shrimp. He wanted to buy that to share with mom, she came to help us when we served at choir and she didn't get any.
