There was a wonderful email message this morning from Jenis' owner. She showed her over the weekend very successfully and sent back the picture AND the intro test where she came home with a 66%.
Jenis is making dreams come true where ever she goes.
Check out the video below.
Diane posted the video below of Mike playing with Ripper. Ripper will be leaving for his new home Saturday morning early and Mike wanted the new owner to see this:
Then Dan posted the video of Levi at Senior High Boys camp. Levi the hero: Dan wrote: So, A little context here. Apostolic Christian Boys Camp 2021. Its halftime of the championship game.. A half -court shooting contest with the prize of winners cabin gets to eat breakfast first... 1. Levi is not a basketball player..2. He sprained his ankle earlier that day...3. There were many talented players taking shots... 4. After 10 minutes of shooting, not one could make it. 5. Levi drops his crutches and gets in line...6. The announcer calls for just 5 more shots before they start the second half. .. 7. with one arm, the ball and a prayer go up... you can figure out the rest.
We had a good walk and shared the video of Levi with mom on the walk. Mark needed me right about that point to go pick up the golf cart. He was able to fix it temporarily, at least good enough to get it home except when I got back to mom's Diane and Joan had 2 big boxes of stuff from mom's that needed to be hauled to Joan's house for the garage sale on Tuesday in Morton. So of course we loaded up the golf cart and took it to Joan's where the golf cart promptly died. I should have listened to Mark. Joan got her plyers out and we were able to get it going again just enough to get us home. Anna came over and we reserved 3 camp sites for August 6th and 7th for Ben's family, Philip's family and Mark and I. The rest of the kids are not able to join us on this camping trip. Two of the campers were reserved along with the motorhome. The other camper was already rented at that time so it worked out well. This camp ground is less than 2 hours from us and has all kinds of activities for the kids. My next job was to head downtown Peoria to pick up the Berean mail. When I got home I took a Quest Plus over to the cabin field and de-wormed Ripper. Karin arrived and used Valiant while working with the girls from Joan's house. The middle paddock needed a new bale and the far paddock needed to have the hog panel removed so the horses could finish up that bale. That paddock will need a new bale tomorrow as will the paddock the outside mare is in. Back in the house AC Central was turned on so I could listen to Earl Ringger in Moris, Rick Kaisner in Chicago, Rick Plattner in Fairbury and Clark Stoller in Gridley while working on the paper work for the registrations. I really do not like doing that paper work. It is just time consuming and repetitive enough so that I can listen on line while working. Rhonda stopped in to drop off one of Lew Sterrett's books which I was tempted to open but didn't. This evening Diane, Karin, Jackie, mom and I played games. Ruth came but didn't play, instead she visited and told us what awful things district 150 is forcing the teachers to teach and this was for PRESCHOOL! They were forced to watch a video about this new teaching. Ruth called Rebekah and told her she must home school her children. NO MATTER what she is not to put them in school. Pretty sad. I think the teachers should rebel, tell them we will NOT teach this and walk off the job. We are already short of teachers. Just few of the objectionable things on this video had to do with cross dressing, genders (we are no longer male or female) and how to teach this. I'd say it is the people that are trying to force this on our children who are really confused. On the way home from mom's the sun was a big red ball in the sky. I tried to take a picture but the red just doesn't show up. Mark got the arena mowed, if you look just right of the lamp post that red dot is the sun.
