Day 139 - packing and painting

Day 139 had a crack in the heat wave. Today was only 23 for a high and in the afternoon a terrible wind came in across southern AB.
In the morning, Sheldon loaded the trailer for the ranch, then we finally roused the girls and headed out to the ranch at ten where they worked on the garage primer. It was not long before Britt felt sick and had to take a leave of absence.

He and I unloaded the trailer, I set up the deck furniture and helped paint while he reinstalled evestrough



At 1245 we rushed back to town for Shaina to get to work by 1 pm
The afternoon was spent packing, mainly the garage and washing up a ton of horse blankets and hanging on the deck to dry. Then at 4 Britt , S and I went back out with yet another load, I finished painting garage, B & S unloaded the horse trailer, S worked on mantle sanding, B checked horses and put salve on Bandits cheek again

Zoe rested :-)

630 we returned for quick supper when Craig and Aaron arrived to help move large furniture along with Amanda, Asher and Kaylin (for a very short time since not feeling well) Boys moved 2 loads heavy items to rental.

 Asher hamming it up during the move, distracted me from taking photo of the burly boys moving the heavy stuff but here is some of their work

TV room empty

rumpus room empty now both ends

furnace room empty

Shaina's room not so quite packed up.
later they returned about 930 for beverages while I blogged.
