Ambleside was bred several times between August 30th and September 5th and she was ready to return home September 6th. Lan & I have jobs, so we planned on going over Friday, staying the night & coming back Saturday but once he got home Thursday night we decided to leave and we were on the road by 5pm. We drove about 4 hours, to Moses Lake, and stayed at the Lakeside Hotel.
$122, nice room, comfy bed, AWESOME continental breakfast included.
We were woken at 6:20am by Phuckin Phildo, wanting me to work but I only said 'I'm in Spokane' and I hung up. Phuck You Phildo.
Anyway, I digress.
We were on the road by about 8am but went into Idaho first to fill up on fuel and it was about $240. YIKES.
From there, we headed out to 2291 Heine Rd to get our girl.
It was over an hour away and we arrived right at noon, right when I had told her we would get there. It took less than 15 minutes to hook up out trailer, put Ambles fly mask on, get her loaded and pay Kirk & Brandy Preston, the breeders, for the service. It was $1,000.00 plus I gave them $200 for mare care, even though Brandy said none was due but Kirk originally wanted $45 DAILY and I had signed the contract agreeing to $20 daily.
And the dude, Kirk, was shirtless, again. How unprofessional and creepy. Ewww. Just Ewww.
We arrived home right at 7:30pm and Wifi immediately started to whinny and ran as fast as she was able toward the driveway, and Amble whinnied back to her. They were so happy to be back together.
Wifi will be an aunty in August 2027, I hope.
Now, I have 10 months to come up with a name for our future baby. While we were traveling in France I saw a sign that was cool and I said I'd someday name a horse that, but I've no idea what it was and we didn't go to that village. We did go to Annecy and Chamonix and I do like that name.
Ambleside is named after a village in England
Anyway, I am going to be looking for the name of that French village to see if I can remember the name.
