Update on Beltaine at Misty Acres
Looks like we are going to have a good amount of people coming out. Awesome!Between a vet bill for a horse and a vet bill for a dog we will not be roasting a pig, but a couple of chickens, wieners and some hamburgers instead.
For vegetarians we will have roast potatoes, carrots, and other veggies.
And probably some rice, along with what people bring.
I did make room in my refrigerator.
And plumbing will be cabin in the woods style lol
One of the horses hurt her leg spooked in a storm, and we had two new rescues come in for fostering yesterday. They are very scared and very fat. Locked in a little pen and just tossed treats and not socialized. So please do not head down to Mom’s place and bug the horses or the dogs while you are visiting, without me or mom.
Cheers!
