Bringing Our Horses Home Part One

Posted in Family, and Homesteading

Over the last few weeks, Daddy and daughter have been working on getting our rental property set up to bring our horses home as time allowed. Stage one was pouring footings for the shelter for their stalls. They allowed the concrete to cure a couple of days before moving on to stage two. Daddy taught Munchkin about how things needed to be measured in order for it all to turn out right. This was the beginning of the shelter for the first stall. The main posts are in place with the first headers done on the backside of the stalls.…

We were fortunate to be able to get free tickets through Veteran Tickets Foundation who give out a massive number of free tickets to vets and their families throughout the…

They can’t walk down the street, read a magazine, look online, or watch tv without temptation being thrown in their faces. They are under a lot of pressure to provide for their families, be good husbands, be good fathers, be good sons….
