Meisters was called but they wouldn't be able to come out until after we were finished so I was glad to let Amanda know that they could come anytime this next week as we won't need the office until next Tuesday. I dropped off mail at the Hanna City post office a couple seconds after my niece Brook pulled in. She got the good parking place and only had a small box to drop off. I had to carry the heavy box full of Bibles and studies so of course I had to tease her about taking my parking place.

We were supposed to go to Middle Grove to pick up horses but it was 96 degrees outside with no breeze. I just couldn't face it and decided the horses are cooler out at Middle Grove than here so hopefully once it cools down we will pick them up. Sarah and Zion came though for a photo session.

The pictures with Merlin were sent to his owner. He loves kids and loves to pose. Spark came over for a short visit late this afternoon. Around 6:00 pm my farmhouse guests sent a message asking if the washer worked. I replied "yes" then asked if they wanted me to come over to show them how. There are 5 men staying there and they are working on the substation which is 7 minutes from the house. They are very glad to be here rather than driving in to Peoria for a hotel room each night. They may have 3 more men coming down next week and asked to see the foaling apartment. They will let me know if they are going to take that next week but for sure are going to rent the farm house next week and the week after. I'm really thankful. They reported they are very pleased with the house, the air conditoner works great and the beds are comfortable. They are grilling each night when they get off work.
