We had a good day today at the Berean office. Only 5 other volunteers showed up but these 5 got the work all done by 11:00 am. After the Bibles were dropped off at the Bartonville post office I headed home. We had another sunny relatively warm day, perfect for cleaning out Valiant's shelter and giving him a new round bale. Valiant was locked out of his paddock while that was done. Emily got home in time to help. Evan's shelter also got a new bale. Eliza and Jenis were brought in to grain while we were working on the bales. Ribbon was not happy that they came in without her but soon settled down to graze. Ribbon has her surgery scheduled for Monday morning and more than likely will need to be stalled a long time while that bone heals. We will need to flip a bale for that.
