Weekend Updates
Saturday we headed off about 7:00 am to Lyfa's retirement home in Joplin. I was so excited and nervous couldn't hardly stand it. But we settled in for the 6 hr drive. Now on the return we brought the mule with us. My friends have tried over the last year to get him to warm up to them but he just wasn't doing it. Mtn Man has a way with mules in that he is patient and slow moving especially when they have attitude issues.
On the way we saw some amish folks over by Mansfield bustlin about on their buggies. Was kind of neat to see them.
When we arrived over there we were all excited to see each other. Had been 5 yrs since we seen each other. We had some supper and returned to the road to home. This was a longgggg day!! We got home around 11:30pm with Einstein ( the mules new name) and two goats( momma and her child) and went straight to bed leaving the critters to hang out in the trailer until we let them out the next morning early!
Sunday
We worked in the garden getting some more goodies. This time finishing up the potato patch and ended up with a cooler full of them. We are gonna can them instead of trying to keep them in a cool place for storage maybe try that next year when things are ready for that. Will go over to the folks' house later this week to get all my jars!
Went over to the neighbors and picked some apples and blackberries before they all were gone to the critters. Gotta take care of those too!
Have lots of things to keep me busy today....
Doesn't Hank (right) & Einstein(left) look alike?
Thanks to all who have emailed me with your comments this works so much better for me.........until later!
