The Airbnb's HERE on the FARM

Friday, November 6, 2020

 Mom is doing better each day on our walk. Today she walked all the way to Joan's house and then back almost to the dumpster before needing to stop and get a drink. We are thrilled the shocking of her heart worked and it is now beating correctly. She doesn't get out of breath so easily. Today we talked about our Gulf Shores Christmas trip trying to figure out where everyone that is going will stay. We have a lot of family going again. After the walk the 2003 truck was unhooked from the Exiss 4 horse trailer and hooked up to the Summerdale. That was plugged in and filled with water.  It had been winterized before I bought it but wanted to try out the water system. We planned on using it tonight so filled the tanks.  Next I drove to Aldi in Pekin for groceries. I thought we were packing for an overnight camping trip and bought supper, breakfast, lunch and Saturday night's meal. Then stopped at Dollar General to pick up some pans that can be used to cook over the fire. Coming back from Aldi the camping plans changed. It gets dark so soon that we are all going out in the morning. Some will be spending Saturday night but we won't. Karin is going to bring the 5 riding horses out and trail rides will be done there tomorrow. When Mark got home we drained the water tanks from the Summerdale then tried to use the tractor to put the Wolf Pup in the barn but that just didn't work. The tractor was unhooked and since the truck was hooked up to the Summerdale that was put away for the season into the barn.  I had to move a row of bales with the skid steer to make room so used the skid steer to move those with the last bale taken to to Hadassah's paddock. We hooked the Wolf Pup up to the skid steer and that worked perfect. Both trailers are now stored inside up against the wall and at the back. There is still enough room to put the 2021 trailer in as soon as I pick it up next week.  The stalls were cleaned and the aisles swept. We have a family from England staying at the apartment for the next couple days.
