Convinced the boss to take a day off today and we attended the Horse Expo @ MSU. Then we had a late lunch at The Courthouse Restaurant in Mason. It was a great day!
He’s headed back tomorrow to help Kim Pluta with the MHHA booth while I take a couple of grandgirls to a movie at church!

Stay safe all —The storms/tornado that went through Michigan was brutal today! Enjoy the little things in life as we never know when a tragedy can strike!

We have openings at both farms if you have a need for turn outs! It’s our slower time so the boss and our helper Braden are taking advantage of a sunny day and cutting wood today. Let us know if we can help to accommodate you with any horse boarding needs! Turn outs, stall rest, great rates—good care! Happy March 1st. 517-524-8539.
