House hunting is all about the checklist. It can be hard to find a home that checks every box. But at Interra, we make it easy to find a mort gage that does. Because everyone’s needs are di erent, so is every loan—and we’re always here to help you navigate the process. Afterall, the only debt you should worry about is the one you owe to the people who help you move. Pizza, anyone?

the epiphany

Feigning ignorance Makes for an Amusing Fishing Trip

Plates clatter. Spoons and forks clink. And Mike’s eyes twinkle.

The wedding supper is over here in this sprucedup shop building north of Shipshewana. Raging appetites have been utterly satiated by the huge variety of food. The plates have been cleared, glasses refilled and the singing has begun.

Customarily at our weddings, the youth keep their seats after finishing their meal to serenade the bride and groom with a selection of wedding songs. Many times we simple folk just sing soprano, though some enjoy singing in four-part harmony and do this occasionally too.

A van load is here from another community of Amish in Vevay. They are seated across the table from Mike and are harmonizing nicely.

Now Mike. Mike Lambright. Michael Lambright is an exceptionally gifted lad. God gave him intelligence, athleticism, charisma and quick wit. One of his favorite amusements is to act ignorant and see if other people assume he really is. That ignorant, I mean.

Hence the twinkle in his eye. In the pause that follows the second song, Mike flashes a disarming smile at the out-of-towner across the table.

“Wow, Phillip, nice job. You have a really nice bass voice.” Mike pronounces the word bass just like the fish – with the short a.

Mike keeps his expression deadpan as he watches Philip’s eyes widen slightly The really amusing thing is being able to watch Philip choose a nice way to correct him.

“Thanks, Mike, uh, you mean bass?” Philip pronounces it correctly.

“Oh, is that how you say it?” Mike is the picture of I-stand-correctedness.

“Well, that’s how we usually say it, anyway,” Philip lets Mike down easily.

Mike does not bother to correct Philip’s impression, instead chuckling on his way home at the thought of the van load heading for Vevay.

“He said it how?”

“No!”

“Do these northern Indiana people really not know how to pronounce the four parts?”

The hook is set even deeper a while later. Mike is traveling with some of the scholars and parents from the school where he teaches. Mike’s coteacher, the bookish, knowledgeable Merlin, sits beside him in the van cruising west on U.S. 20.

And to your left, ladies and gentlemen, is a landmark. The constant flame at the landfill on the south side of U.S. 20 comes into view.

“Hey everybody!” Mike exclaims. “That is the eternal flame burning as a memorial to President Kennedy.”

Mike watches Merlin out of the corner of his eye and almost loses his composure at the sight of Merlin’s face going through first shock, then pity, then compassion, as he seeks a way to correct Mike nicely.

“Uh Mike, I think Kennedy’s flame is close to Washington, D.C.”

Now Mike has to laugh. A lot. When he regains his breath, he agrees. “Oh yeah, that way it would be closer to where he is buried. That would make sense.”

Merlin smiles in chagrin and pulls the hook out of his mouth. This one will sting for a while.

Wearing

blankets on your horses can be a big benefit in the correct situations, but also may cause discomfort in some situations.

There is so much to choose from. First, pick your outer material, like 600, 1000, and 1200 Denier, RipStop, Polyester, Cordura, etc. Next, your liner, like quilted, felt, fleece, windbreaker and more. And now to decide between rugs, or fitted blankets to turnouts, stable, fly, frost, waterproof, water-repellent, breathable, shoulder gassets, tail flaps, double belly straps, snap or buckle front closures, etc.

So how do you decide what you need for your situation? Ask yourself the following questions:

• Am I turning them out after workouts, or am I stalling after workouts?

• Can my horse exercise after blanketing?

• Can they get out the wind and rain?

Blanketing horses in cold weather can decrease hay intake significantly. If the weather is too warm, it will make them uncomfortable. To sum it up, most blankets have their own reason for design, material and pricing. If you need help choosing a blanket, come see us or call.
