I love that part of texas. I lived in Ballinger for four years and hope to return soon. I miss the peacefulness. Sunsets are amazing and so are the night skies!
I also have passed by this place many times and wondered what the little fenced spot was. After the wreath someone puts up a Texas star. I am so very glad to know this now. Thanks TCR.
Good deeds are like a pebble dropping in smooth water. From the heartland of Texas to the shores of Puget Sound, we honor and respect a Texas tradition. You never know how your actions can affect others, nor how far that influence can travel.
What 7 people did not like this as of July 8. This is such a country thing, a Texas thing that no city dweller could understand it. And that is a pity.
I'm a city dweller, who understands this. I'm even originally from Sacramento, California, been in Oregon 20 years, but have lived in 8 different states when I was younger. Smallest place was Emerado, North Dakota. Was living in that tiny town, just outside the gates of Grand Forks AIr Force Base, 25 miles East of the town of Grand Forks. Although I certainly didn't appreciate the -60° winters, I did appreciate the town and the people. I've been to 30+ states, however I've yet to go to Texas. With how far leftest this place is and is continuing to go further, I've genuinely been considering moving to Texas. I have family and countless brothers and sisters in Christ there that I've met through ministry. I already love the people and places of Texas. Which is why I subscribe to this wonderful channel. 🙂
My wife and I stopped by this place last Saturday while doing a little Mothers Day Weekend day trippin'. I've know of this fence, and a bit of Old Joe's story for a bit over 40 years now. Only following our recent stop to I take the time to research the real story as found here. Happens that what I recalled from decades ago wasn't too far from the truth. I have known others in the Multer family - all good and Godly people. Thank you for reporting this to the world. Love and respect for God's beasts of burden are always heartwarming and tend to renew our confidence in mankind. ...By the way, on both Google Maps and Google Earth you can zoom in on the location and see the picket fence the satellite view as well as Street View.

Nice story. What a loyal and loving horse the Doctor had. It also says a lot about the Doctor and how kind he was to his horse.. 🍃♥️🕊
Great job folks Old Joe and the Doc I know thank you for this kind act.
Thank you for this story 🙏 Animals have true unconditional love and are God's treasures.

Oh how I love this story and these people. Amazing and outstanding! TCR you are absolutely precious !
What a beautiful story. God bless them, and Old Joe.
We drove by it every day as I grew up. We always told the story to each generation.
🇺🇸God Bless America🇺🇸

A story well told.
Drove by there many times. Know our family knows the story to the white picket fence. ❤
I really like TCR, but this one really touched my heart as an animal lover.
Beautiful 🥰 Story

You too Sir. 🍃🕊
Thank you for the concordance!
It put right on top of the grave!
WOW!!👍👍👍
U guys should get some pretty Christmas solar lights string around the fence plain white wons would look vintage to go with the fence I love it❤
I just love the love 🥰 if only everyone could have a 🐎 🥰
"If one person is touched, its all worth it!" Well this old man is making full use of his bandana!
My 14 year old yellow lab has a soul like this old horse did
no one knows who puts the wreath? that's pretty cool.
The horse Joe must have passed there. Horses are so heavy they are usually buried where they pass.
Cute
I have a picture of Dr WW Fowler
I wish you could find good kids in Atlanta, Ga.. Area...
Fine Christians...
