Today is the big "Rush" to get everything ready for our trip. Including all the furry people that live at our house. The Pet Hotel only accepts incoming between 9-10 a.m. on Saturday, and we had to have the Horses to their Border before Noon. Which normally wouldn't be a problem, and especially since my Mare "Ruby" will now load in my Trailer, but my dear little Ruby decided that she didn't want to load anymore.
Well it took about 30 minutes and we finally got her in. But once we got the doors closed she blew up, and it was like someone threw a stick of dynamite in that trailer. My instinct was to run, but I grabbed her halter and scolded her. It actually worked and calmed her down. We got her to the ranch and she was just fine. In fact when we arrived, there were several cute young girls there that volunteer for the rescue that is also at the ranch, and Ruby thought she was in Heaven. After I unloaded her each girl wanted to lead her around and feed her grass.
Oops! I forgot to mention "Spuds". He is only 30" tall at the shoulder. And the sweetest little Stud you would ever want to meet. We loaded him in one of my tack rooms on the trailer. My husband just lifted his front legs, while I pushed on his rear, then I ran around and pulled on the lead rope while my husband lifted his rump into the trailer. It was the cutest thing you ever saw.
To be honest with you it is hard to leave my home and animals for even a short time. I love where I live, and I love the life my husband and I have created for ourselves.
Anyway I probably won't be able to make it to the internet for a while so this might be my last entry for a while.
Wish me luck and have a great September. Watch the leaves Fall and thank God for the Beauty we have around us.
