Spent some time with Jim's wonderful mom today. Their neighbor has a friend who works at an antique store and he donated a truckful of special items for the Thrift Store. Will get them down there sometime this week.
When you work in a rescuing capacity you get to meet so many great and caring people. Margaret has horses in her pasture for us every summer. Aurora, Sunny, Chardonnay and Kim are there for a few months.
Lin and Darrel have graciously offered their pastureland to some of our horses. Sparkle, Ruby, Jesse and Bobbie are there now and Tues. we'll take more down.
Lin and Darrel volunteer for Butte County Volunteer Fire Company 25. On Sat June 4 there will be a BBQ from 10-2 at the Clear Creek Crossing Gas Station and Store- Corner of Durham Pentz Highway and Clark Rd, right near Butte College. There will be emergency vehicles to see. Come on out and have a great day while supporting the Volunteers.
Next Sunday May 15 will be a volunteer workday at Home At Last. Fences need tearing down and rebuilt, manure needs moved to the garden, rocks need to be moved and planters built. If you have time from 10-2 and are ready to work hard come on out. Bring water and lunch. Call first so we know how many will be here. 530-514-1439 Wear appropriate shoes and maybe a hat. Hope to see you Sunday.
Sugar and Gracie have become grooming buddies. They both have needed a friend and it's good to see them together.
Today was cooler and the horses frolicked all day. The games of Get Your Knees and Bite Your Bottom were played by many.
Folks who stop at the Thrift Store for the first time are amazed at the number of really good items that are there. They comment on how nice the store looks and how well it is organized. Helen and Ron have done an outstanding job. Come by 611 Walnut Chico Tues-Sun and see for yourself. Volunteers are still needed. Call 712-7777 to find out where to get your application. Check their FaceBook page Home At Last Thrift and Gift.
Another week is starting. I hope it is full of happiness and surprises (good ones) for you.
