Dear Friends:

 

We are doing repairs and updates on the BUS. We cleaned it and dived into maintenance on the generator. We have a couple repairs there to do and a fix on the flooring in one spot, otherwise we are living quite well on the bus, getting gear stowed, going over every possible part, cleaning and packing away food as we get it.

 

We really appreciate all those who believed in this dream and helped out because we got there.

 

Now we need to replace four batteries, we need an Apple computer for the videos we will be putting up each day, and we need the bus painted and the signs put on it.

 

You can really make a difference if you can help just a little bit.

For food or gear you can also send us an unused gift card of any kind to our PO Box below.

 

Last night we went out and got both  horses in tandem working out together, Cookie the Mare and Hampton the Gelding.

 

They worked fine. We had been a little bit concerned about that but now laid it to rest.

 

As soon as the bus is painted and maintenance items solved we will be under way. Its been a long time, but we are getting there. Our planned route is now south through California and across Texas, the route we first planned last year.

 

We are getting there.

 

Matthew
