Youngest daughter is working as a mechanic

[valley ranch]

Yes, she got the job ~ without mentioning or asking ~ seems to like it ~ I mean pulling engines ~ putting in trannys ~ rebuilding head ~ doing brake jobs ~ won't wear gloves ```

Good for her! I have hired 4 ladies to work in my garages over time, one is still with me. Buy her the gloves. Stylish steel toes also. Good luck with that last one.

Yeh, she is doing that ```

That is terrific! Nothing like skills to help you later on, AND developing a good work ethic, and the resume to prove it. I know a girl who has started at our local 2 year college with hopes to transfer and become a CPA. She spent the 2019 tax season (for 2018, of course) assisting in taxes for a couple of hundred customers, while finishing her senior year in H.S. Same thing, different job.

Good for her! Are your girls still working with the horses?

They find time to ride ~ but no longer train ~ sold a few to lighten the feed load ```

Wow I didn’t know that was one of her interests. I just thought she would be a vet or horse trainer.
Your daughters are amazing.

I love a modern women. 30 years ago she would not have been considered. Yay for those who did the social work before her to give her a chance at doing what she loves.

She says: She learned it from me ~ she use to help with mechanical repair by getting as dirty as possible ```
