Cucumbers before we put the pickle juice in the jars (which is also what makes them Yellow.
Banana Pickles sealing up. The jars need cleaned and then they will go on the shelf.Ok today I did a number of activities. My day started at 6:30 this morning. I got ready for the day and went downstairs and mixed pancakes for breakfast. I then went out and gave Navajo his breakfast, gave him fresh water and sprayed fly spray on him. Also mucked out his pasture. Then I went in and got breakfas for the rest of the family. I cleared the table and washed dishes.
After I was done washing the breakfast dishes I went out and helped with the pickles.
We finished the pickles by lunch. I finished up the wash in between doing the pickles. So all the wash was hung out:) Anyway we then took a half hour break after dinner and did what we wanted.

Around 1:30 I started making 4 peanut butter creme pies. That went well and I gave one to my neighbor who took care of Navajo while I was in WI. That is our agreement on how I pay him..LOL.
Once I was done with the pies, I made 2 potato pizza bake casseroles, One for supper and one to stick in the freezer for later. I then put the one in the oven for supper. Once supper was ready we ate and I cleaned up the supper dishes. After supper, I cleaned out his feed bin and cleaned some buckets.
Ok so now for the riding. I rode Navajo down the strip and we did a lot of trotting. I took him on the road and trotted him a little ways and then trotted him back to the strip. He did very well. We turned the corner and he decided he wants to run away:( I got him stopped and turned him around to go back down the strip and he put up a fight. Well needless to say, I got him to back up and stop and stand still. He still wouldn't listen. I waited him out and he listened to me and went down the strip. Once we got back I lunged him a bit and he did quite well with that. I know part of the reason that he isn't listening is because he hasn't been ridden for a while and he is testing his boundries with me to see how far and how much he can get away with (which he is finding out isn't much:). Well that is all for now. This is just another day with my family:)
