Even, though it is Monday, this page was written on Sunday.
I was waiting to go to brunch with friends — as we do most Sunday mornings. It was wet and foggy again — so I decided to go to my computer and “play” with a photo which I took in the garden yesterday. See the results of my computer play time:
- In the afternoon, my friends planned for the three of us a long trail ride for Fathers Day. Looking mighty dark though the weather map said only a slight chance of rain — So we parked the horse trailers on a grassy spot on the other side of the Island — a 3 hour trail ride away. Back at the farm, we lead the three horses into the barn — we are ready to saddle up and head down the trail — through woods and clearings for the trailers — Moments later – rain, hail, wind. Horses really went bonkers with hail hitting the tin roof, thunder, lightening — WOW. One horse tried to jump out of stall –fell flat on on it’s back — we released all of them to run in the rain and hail — naturally no trail ride — we would have gotten soaked — even if the rain stopped due to many low trees with very wet leaves — we retrieved empty trailers — plan for another day.
- After the rain and trailers retrieved, great sunshine and Perla says– “Why did we not ride? — I was out in the hail and rain — no problem, well maybe I was a little ballistic — but I got over it — you are a sissy for not going”
- After all that daytime stuff and a great hamburger grilled dinner with Grandmas beans and baked potatoes I decided on a late canoe ride — returned at 10 pm and this is what I saw.
