I was not in a rush to get up this morning as there is no walk on Saturdays. Diane had gone shopping on the Spoon River drive and found 10 chairs for sale for $1.00 a chair. We need them at the playground and around the fire so I told her to buy them all and I would come pick them up as she was driving the Prius.
We are pretty thrilled to get them, they are all in good shape and should last if once the weather turns cold we store them inside. I was on my way home with them when the lady coming to see the barn for her wedding next year sent a text that she was at the barn waiting. I was exactly 2 minutes away. I explained to her the barn is set up for family reunions but we are willing to do weddings IF the renter will do all the work. In other words they will need to cover all of the sports equipment themselves. The only thing I am willing to do is to take down the volleyball net. She was thrilled with the place and said they could easily do that. About then the guests in the foaling apartment sent a message that they had left the apartment so after breakfast I drove the golf cart over to get it ready for the guests coming in at noon today. They had left it in very good condition. The sheets and towels were brought to the barn to wash. I had not quite finished when the guests in the farm house left. Those towels and sheets were also brought over to the barn. The next guests for the foaling apartment arrived before I finished the farm house. At 11:00 am the family arrived that are going to replace the motorhome roof and do all of the repairs. They are from Bushnell, IL and have a 5 star rating for camper and motorhome repairs. They showed us the product they use and it comes with a lifetime guarantee from any leaks. They have amazing service as they drove it to their repair shop in Bushnell. Below the husband is driving the motorhome away while the wife drives their car. They had 2 children and the older one went in the motorhome.
The guarantee transfers if we sell the motorhome. I'm pretty thrilled with that as if I was buying a motorhome I would want one that is guaranteed not to leak.
Rhoda and Sarah watched the Waverly sale on-line and ended up buying a 13.3 hand 4 year old pony mare well broke to ride. She does laterals, sidepasses and has a very balanced canter. I took the stock trailer off of the truck and hooked up the 2 horse trailer.
They will leave in the morning to pick her up as the sale was closing in a hour and the drive is 3 hours.
I finished the laundry and finished cleaning the farm house late this afternoon. Berlica came by on Jury.
I told her about the new pony and she is really excited too. The pony is named Snicker Doodle and she is an appaloosa/paint cross. She has 4 white stockings some Appaloosa markings and a white tail.
She is the perfect size for Zion, Iris, Eden and River. These grand daughters want to show next year and now they don't have to wait their turn as long.
