Yesterday Dad and I worked at the farm sale getting the last of the pictures done. It was hot and sticky! Dad and I both got sunburned. What a change today!! It's cool and rainy. Seth had an appointment with the foot doctor and he and Dad both had eye doctor appointments so they are in Caro right now. I was working on a new quilting project...I had planned on doing some stuff outside but it looks like that won't be happening now! Levi is chopping wood...I think, Mom is working on some stuff for the auction and Lydia is...playing! I'll probably be going to the auction hall with Dad later today after he gets home.
Last night, after we got home from Lennon, I took Smoke for a ride. It was getting dark and she was being stubborn...but we got a fun, fast ride in before it got too late. I'm getting her a new bitless bridle....I rode her primarily in the rope halter last night and she did much better than with the bridle. She is very light and sensitive and she does not like the bit at all...so I'm hoping this bitless setup will be much more to her liking. We did some good circles...she's a lot of fun.
I'm hoping to get a video of her doing this stuff soon...then I'll post in on the website.
I haven't been doing much with the third book...I think I'm on page 40...or around there somewhere!! It's the beginning of Chapter Six: The Storm.
I'm working on getting an illustrator for the first two....then I'll need to get them edited and choose a publisher. I'm hoping to have both published by this time next year...if not sooner.
Well, I'd better get back to work on my quilt....its a gift for someone and I have less than a month to finish it.
Enjoy your summer!
