Max Hoerr's Visitation

 We got an inch of rain during that storm last night. I drove the golf cart over early to the indoor arena to check on the foals and give them clean water. They still had a bucket of water but both were glad to drink fresh clean water. They were left in the barn while I met Diane for the walk. When we got to the horses I was talking with my airbnb guest when Mike arrived. I showed him where they broke the boards. We finished our walk and I went in to make breakfast for Mark. Mike called shortly after to let me know he had fixed the boards. He was there loading a tractor to take to Middle Grove so I asked if he would help get the filly's leg cleaned off so I could treat it. He held her while I hosed it off. She scraped her leg when jumping over the fence. I used the spray on bandage to keep it clean. Mike led her back to the paddock while I led Merlin. Both led well. They were glad for their grain and to be back outside. 

Mike took off for Middle Grove. I cleaned up the indoor, then picked up the laundry and the garbage from the apartment and took that back to the house. Mark went back to work on the old golf cart while I finished the apartment and our laundry. At 4:40 pm we left for the funeral home to go to Max Hoerr's visitation. We got there after 5:00 pm and the line was already very long. Mark let me out to get in line while he tried to find a parking place. Holly and Brian Zobrist came in right after us so we had a nice long time to visit while waiting. We saw and visited with many many people from our past. Dave and LaNae came in after us. I asked him if he was supposed to be preaching tonight. He said, "yes, I'm going to dial it in" then laughed. He WAS supposed to song lead. There was no way he was going to make that. By the time we got through it was too late to head to church but we turned on AC Central and saw that Gregg was having the service. We will have to watch that tomorrow as he was just about done preaching. We stopped at a Wendy's for a very late supper and both ordered the taco salad which comes with a bowl of chili. A good meal for a drizzly cool night. We drove up to the barn on the way home to make sure the foals were not out and they were not. So far so good. We are now home and ready for bed.
