Heading towards Vegas for New Years then off to Arizona.

On the 27th we meet up with our new friend Phoebe Kingscote from Power River with her 20 year old Canadian Stallion "Teddy". We headed across the US boarder at Sumas about 2:30 on the 27th. We had no problem with the horses going across. Our first night we did not go too far but wanted to get through the first mountain past. The first rest area was where we pulled over for the night. Fed the horses in the trailer and got to sleep early. We are staying at Easter Slope Ranch in Baker City tonight. Then on to Nevada tomorrow.

The count down

Only 10 days until we leave for Arizona. I have been trying to get my camping and horses web site up to date. Everyday I work on a new Province or State with up to-date listings. Please keep posted on this web site. My plan is to have as much information as possible on it to make anyone camping with their horse well informed on what they need to get started. If you have a horse site or place to overnight a horse I can list it for as low as $25 a year. We are now getting over 100 hits a day. This web site is fast  becoming one of the most informative web site on the net for Traveling horsemen.

THE COUNT DOWN

Well it is less then a month until we leave for Arizona.

  Most people are rushing around getting ready for Christmas this time of year. Yes we are still getting ready for christmas but do we put a tree up? We plan to leave just days after Christmas to try and make it to the desert for New Years. Tree or no-tree ? I will still put some Christmas decor up anyway.

  We have an appointment for the 19th for our horses to get the blood-work done for the coggins test and health papers. Horses have had all their shots . Dogs and cats have had their rabies shots. Ron has been working on the LQ horse trailer double checking everything is in fine working order.

I am hoping that 2 months of not working will help my poor shoulders out. God I hate getting old. I can hardly wait until we are under those beautiful coloured skys that make Arizona so unforgettable.
