Everybody kept busy with their usual jobs here at the farm today, but in the midst of a busy day, we were enjoying nice fall weather. We hired the neighbor to 'no-till' the rye in the fields today. After school, Faith cleaned Ginger's stall and took a ride.....on Ginger and on the 4-wheeler. Between laundry and cleaning and cooking, I had to fix Ginger's bridle for Faith.....found an extra leather strap, put some holes in it, and looped it in through the bridle. ( a farmer's wife is called on to do all sorts of things). A bright spot in the day was when the 'candy man' stopped by for a sweet visit. We sure miss Hannah, so this post is dedicated to her so she can share our day with us. Enjoy, Hannah!
Don't you just love Ginger's long, white, eyelashes? See the tool I used to punch holes in the bridle straps?
Throw the saddle on and let's go for a ride!
Did someone say....let's go for a ride?

We enjoyed looking at this nice post today too! :)) Grandpa & Grandma B.
Very nice, Melissa. I know Hannah will like it. I remember Aunt Grace saying when she got married and moved to Lancaster County, it was like moving to a foreign country, b/c it was too expensive to make long distance phone calls to her family very often.
I know this sounds like an old mother hen, but it would be good for Faith to wear a helmet while riding the 4-wheeler. One of David's old ball teammates died about three years ago and I don't even think he was going fast. And I have typed A LOT of accidents of patients coming to the ER with ATV accidents. Chris
