Stinky Car

The car has been so stinky since the hog roast, I opened up the back, check out the trunk removing stuff and couldn't see any grease sitting around rotting but I washed it out anyway just in case.

Then Mark got into the act and started taking the trunk apart and this is what HE FOUND!

Where the spare tire goes was full of rancid grease. Mark thinks I didn't look very hard. By the time I finished cleaning, scrubbing, washing and drying it looked like this.

and smelled a LOT better.
At the farm this morning as we pull in Samantha's gate is open and she and her filly are no where to be found. We drive up to the barn and Samantha sticks her head out the window asking "where's breakfast?". Steven put them in last night because of the predicted rain. We got a nice gentle rain of about a half inch. The filly got her last shot and temperature taken. She was 101 this morning but acting and feeling fine. Her neck where the infection was is healing well.
The cotton candy and snow cone machines along with all the supplies were loaded up and taken to our Skyline home. Mark helped unload while I had a good visit with Bernice Otto.
Steven called, he got Rohan, Glory and Independence all their first half dose of panacur. We used Ivermectin and found out the hard (expensive) way the parasites have developed a resistance to that. We still have the foals at Middle Grove to do but that will have to wait until we are home from Branson.
Each foal needs to get another half dose in 2 weeks then a month later a full dose.
