Arena Work

Jenis was covered this morning, hopefully she will be out by tomorrow. The trailer was taken to D & H RV repair on Plank Rd arriving at the 8:30am appointment exactly on time. They will call with a firm estimate but it sounded like we will be able to get it repaired. The Kellenberger family had just arrived to watch the vaulting practice when I finally made it back to the farm. After the practice Karin gave the children in family rides on Ribbon. The bale spear was attached to the skid steer and that was taken to the outdoor arena to work on clearing the weeds. That went well for a while until the spear was snapped off the attachment. From then on the arena was cleared by hand and rake. Bethany, Hanna and Faith Reinhard came over to help Karin and I working in the bright hot sunshine on the burning sand. Karin took the girls to Hanna's Parlor for ice-cream after that. A trip to Sam's club was on my to do list where 340 paper dinner plates, 170 dessert plates, 500 cups and a box of 39 gallon garbage bags were picked up for Sunday's meal. A surprise phone call came from Becky Schaer, she is married, got married in June to Russ. She is going to email the marriage announcement but we wish her the best!
