It was very foggy this morning. I went out early to move the two foals being weaned in the stalls out to a paddock. They were very glad to get out but wanted to be with the other mares and foals. They were kept in the far paddock until this afternoon then let in with the others. They were very content to be in and are not calling at all for their mothers. I kept their halters on but the halters are break a ways so if the halter gets stuck on anything it will just tear. Whiskey was teased and still in so covered this morning by Evan which made me a few minutes late for the walk. Everyone else was late too. The fog was just so thick it seemed much earlier than it really was. Below is standing on mom's deck looking over at Rachel's and Joan's houses.

Morning Fog Evening Rain
We could not see their houses at all, just the spooky outline of trees. The fog also seemed to deaden the usual bird sounds. Mom was able to walk all the way to Joan's and back then the rest of us walked to the barn and back. Mom was picked up at 8:20 for our trip out to the Berean office. If you would like to read about our morning there click HERE. After we finished up there we stopped at the Hanna City post office to drop off the Bibles for the week. Rachel, the post office lady was sitting at her desk with her mask hanging off her ear. She reported that the new mandate was the workers there had to wear a mask AND she had already had Covid and had the vaccine. She also said they are not making the public wear them in that office...yet.. Just depends on if someone complains. We were suppose to have the hay fields cut this afternoon except what wasn't suppose to happen, happened and we had rain, LOTS of rain this afternoon. It was still raining when Mark got home and raining most of the evening. After supper Rhonda, Berlica, mom and I played games. After the game was over mom served us her cooked chocolate pudding with whip cream. It was DELICIOUS!
