Changing of the Guards
My work schedule changed for this week, so I had Monday off from work. I had planned to sleep, read, and play with the horses. I got an unexpected phone call from Mark. We talked a bit and decided it was time for Tequila and DB to go back to Shallowbrook. Vacation was over for Tequila, and it was time to find out if DB would be able to play polo again. In addition to these 2 mares, C'est Bon was going to also go along for the ride. Mark needs a beginner lesson horse, and wants to see how she works out. Trick and Eva would come back with me to MA, to get some rest & relaxation before the summer polo season.Mark was concerned that I would have to catch, wrap legs, load and trailer 3 horses, but I assurred him I could handle the job. If you have been reading my blogs, you know that things around here never go as planned.I won't go into details, but it was a LONG time between hanging up the phone, and driving out of the driveway. We safely arrived in CT. I helped Mark with a few things, horses were unloaded, they met Mudslide, and everyone seemed happy. Trick and Eva were loaded, and safely returned home. So, I didn't get any extra sleep, didn't read my book, but did get to play with horses, and visit with my son. Wow, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!
