a day to play......

Work, work work... Ed and I have said that this is one house that will be completely finished. And ya, it's taking some time, and some things are more important than others... but even the small jobs are getting done (whoo-who)... So, while I was away visiting Ginger..
Ed pulled out his "things" and got the trim work finished up in the pantry. Which now means, I will be back to painting (again)... but, finished is finished.. and we are determined...
I had a wonderful and "rare" day today.. a day just to "play". My friend Astrid is interested in horses, so she called to see if I had a day where she could come the farm and just be around them. Well.. you can't just "be around them..." you have to play. So, we harnessed Mocha and played with her for a bit.. and then we got Duke out.
He was such a good boy, and the day couldn't have been prettier.. and we just drove and drove....
I asked Ed to get some photos of us driving, so he hopped in the gator and followed us about... he got some great shots!!!!
Astrid had a great time.. but it "worries" me.. because I had (have) another friend... Betty.. who was "also interested in horses".. and where is she now... the proud owner of a welch cobb... who she loves to take driving...
by that big smile on her face (and happy wave to Ed)... I think Astrid might be in "big trouble"..... horses are addictive...
One thing for sure, I'm not going to let these days get by me....
I am going to take the time, and play... I think we all need to do that way more often.....












 Duke was such a good boy.. and I think he enjoyed the time as much as we did.  So, here's to all of you.. get out and play, because winter is on the way.........
