This is from fellow RV'r who has a strong concern for their friend. It's an opportunity to stay at one of the most beautiful places on earth and help someone out who really needs it. In return, a free place to settle for awhile.
Here's what he wrote in his blog:
"As we talked with Belle this morning it was apparent she was in pain from her broken hip back in August. A second fall has injured a knee but this 82 year old independent lady won't let any of that daunt her & is reluctant & afraid about returning to hospital. She still struggles to get her wheelchair & scooter out the door & down to her John Deere gator tractor. Belle can't ride her horses anymore but she can still drive her John Deere down to the corral to see them. Belle’s spirit is not going to let something as trivial as a broken hip & injured knee stop her. She has had a young fellow helping her on the ranch the last while but he's moving on this week. Thad travels in a travel trailer but he's headed east to do some fishing. Belle took in another homeless person a few days ago to help with the horses but after meeting this fellow to-day I'm not to optimistic about that working out. Belle & the ranch are in desperate need of a 'responsible' person or persons to help, whether it be short term or long term!! She really needs a trusting person to step in & take charge of the ranch!!"
