We had morning school then took the truck to Boone. It was interesting to walk into the local Auto dealer's office to find 6 office employees without masks or any sign of COVID precautions. They were not social distancing and life felt normal. Just a few blocks away in another store, they are wearing masks, gloves, and have sheets of plastic covering the counter and cash register. It is so strange. I prefer to carry on my life as normal and not feel like some highly contagious alien walking into a research lab.
I saw posts online where people were painting their windows for Easter. My mom had Alivia paint her front window and I thought it turned out great. I taped up our window and had each of the kids paint a color. I thought it turned out nice too.
It is suggested that gatherings are less than 10 people. Well, we are still going to hold our arena ropings as long as our locals want to keep coming. I think everyone was so happy we were still having them. It gets people out and gives them something to look forward too. It's socializing and exercise. It helps keep us all sane. I have been riding Ace getting him exercised to see how he feels. My first ride he was kind of crazy and took off with me a few times. After letting him run free in the arena a few times, he was much better. I think he feels good, has energy and isn't acting lame or sore. He certainly is not an old lame grandpa horse ready to be retired. Jayden has retired him, but I think he has a comeback in him. After I told her about Ace, she wanted me to exercise him in case she decided to take him with her to Alva after Spring Break. I don't know how much he can handle, but with good ground and and occasional runs, he may get along and do pretty good. Maybe having the past 6+ months off has helped him and given him time to re-cooperate and heal.
Latte is one of our black cats we have had for 7 years. He loves roping night. He joins us every week and loves to be in the saddle with you. I will ride my horse down to the gate, he climbs up and jumps right on with me, or whoever will let him. In this case Luke was riding Ace a little. He is officially our roping and riding companion.
