It is unusual to arrive at our homes and find everything working properly. Today was no exception. The air conditioning unit for the second floor was not running when we arrived at the Top House at the ranch mid afternoon. Fortunately, the main floor was working like a champ, but upstairs was hot and muggy. But soon it rained and cooled the whole house down so we opened the windows. Tomorrow, Pat will come and check the air conditioner and I hope, get it working. Problem number one about to be solved.
When we arrived, a sign was attached to the gate of the ranch, which said, "Have you seen my young bull calf, with a white face?" And giving a phone number. Sure enough, we have a young black bull with a white face, right in with our other longhorn cattle. I phoned the Harry from the note, but as of yet, have not had a return call. No progress on problem number two.
We stopped at the Caterer in Fredericksburg to leave a deposit and review details. The chief suggested we rent a large refrigerator to be used outside. We stopped by a place in Fredericksburg and they have a very large unit on a trailer, but it needs 30 amps and a special plug, which would need to be installed. In conversation with Pat, the electrician, I asked him if he knows anyone who would rent us a big fridge. Turns out, he owns one. The only thing we would need to do would be to buy new shelves. Problem number 3 solved.
When we have problems here at the ranch we call Pat. He is an electrician but he also repairs appliances and installs air conditioners. It is a good thing we know Pat.
