I have finally made it! The big drive home took 4 days of a long journey to say the least, but we all arrived safely home to the 1500 acre family farm outside of Seward, Nebraska.
My two horses stood and endured the four days and spent all but 1 night of their time in my big ass 26 foot horse trailer. Turbo and Sahara are enjoying endless acres of green pastures and a nice cool fall now.
The dogs. Good grief the dogs. Always excited to get back into the car, even after 12 hour days of driving, they are real troopers. Nobody puked, thank God!
And fat cat. Moki aka: "Moe Valley". Riding in the front seat sprawled out and the most comfortable of us all the entire trip. Day 3 he fell asleep with his head on the gear shift and a big pussycat smile on his face. He has been with me for a very exciting 11 years in AZ....most of the excitement being on my part of course.
I only got pulled over once, in Oklahoma, for "following too closely" and a $20 seatbelt ticket to which I could not convince the officer of my statistics logistics theory; AND I was told that i have a "distorted view" on things. HA! He don't know what i been through!
I guess when you have virtually NO traffic and 2 lanes of nothing forever, you need to obey the 10 second rule......... damn he was a fine looking young sheriff though .....maybe I should go to court on that one........LOL...
Also I lived through my 38th Birthday recently. Nice dinner out with 3 of my closest friends. How did I get to be almost 40? Is that possible?
Thats it in a nutshell. Ain't it good to be back home again?.... Yes.
Oh, i've decided to change my last name back to my maiden name of Curtis. My smartass brother thinks I should change my first name too since I'm going to the trouble of it all.
He and I came up with this: Barbi Baler Curtis.
Hay baler that is, like hay for horses, which is kinda what we do out here.....
So why not? It's kinda catchy... and just think PINK, John Deere did.
