Ok Pyranha fly spray lovers! I have a surprise

Buy it for $11.95!! Whoa. Even with shipping (I purchased several bottles) it is WAY cheaper than your feed store. I found TSC carries it, if you can find it in stock that is. Even then it is $14.99 at TSC. I had to share my find. Now I am off to find lower prices on the first aid products that my Daughter's dog ate. Gotta love replacing NEW items. lol. Pinching pennies anywhere we can.

Are you going to be effected by TANC's proposal?

We need to get our Right's and information before it is too late. The Cottonwood meeting discussed submitting a no trespass letter and the intent of charging TANC if they so deicide to request access to your land. Aditionally I was informed tonight there are forms we will need to fill out and submitt to TANC's big wig David Young BEFORE May 31 in order to stop them. Here is a website with lots of information for us property owners in thier proposed route. Go to WWW.STOPTANC.COM

If you have additional information PLEASE add on here and help the community get involved and informed. WE are all WE have. They would prefer the people not be educated I'm sure.

I have to bring Walco into this Blog again.

I'm pretty busy at the shows this weekend, but had to tell ya'll if you haven't made it to Walco yet, I found another reason. Ivermectin wormer... $3. Ivermectin Gold, $12.99 AND they carry the Repel-X lotion I love. The ONLY decent fly repellent that will fit in my saddle bag with out making a mess. I used to buy quantities of it when I visited Vacaville. No one around here carries it. NOW they do! Prices at Walco are pretty amazing and saving me a ton. If we all begin buying and requesting more horse products (they mainly carry cattle products) we could be saving money on more of our horse products we so despiratley save and spend on. So get the word out, it will save us all money. And ALL of us can use that right now.

If your out showing this weekend too, have fun and good luck! Give your horses a treat. 1/2 cup molases (dark molases) and a few gallons water. Mix till it looks like a tea color or darker. Your horses will stay hydrated because who turns down molases?

We are BACK!

Life with out your laptop is horrible. How did we exist? Well I am back to blog and surf as I want. Whew!
During my time down, I purchased a new horse. But I couldn't wait to share with my fellow readers, my recent experience. I found a horse on craiglist (CL) that sounded promising. The price was right, the horse sounded right. What could go wrong? I gathered a few friends and we made the trip to Redding. Well, actually we stopped in Cottonwood to grab a bite to eat and await the directions. Meanwhile I was getting mixed feelings about the seller I was dealing with. She sounded like a child, but swore she was an adult. lol. (Hmm,... first clue?) The seller was supposed to call me at 4 whe she got off work to give me directions. I'd already be on my way to Redding to meet up with her. SHe couldn't give me the address yet, her Mommy didn't give her permission. Huh, you'd think she would have called ahead since we made these plans the day before! But ya know, thats just me. What do I know? She told me she would call me back with the location when her Mom said it was ok. I'm getting a bad feeling now. We waited another hour, well ya know you and your friends get to gabbing time can pass. SO I call the seller back, she told me was still waiting! I told her I didn't have all day. She promised to call me right back. She never called me back, infact she turned her cell phone off. A flake as expected. The girls and I went shopping and when I returned home later.... guess what I found? The horse relisted for $300 more. Now see, CL time stamps your add. She POSTED this new add WHILE WE WERE WAITING ON HER! I felt sorry for the horse. To be held captive my such a crazy lady. And btw.... crazy lady was part of her email! Bwaahaaaa! OMG I should have known! Well, we certianly got a good chuckle out of it. Live and Learn.
