And the merciless sun has gone down. There is no breeze so it is still and hot and humid, still 91 degrees at 8 PM. The dogs keep their activity limited to stay cool and love to stand in their wading pools.
Today I added even more tarps... some on the sides of pens rather than tops as the sun comes at a side angle into some of them, I also hang tarps in between pens to cool the area around the pens.
Not much in the way of major events today. Skinny ripped the gate open and let Quattro out while I was gone, but they were panting in the driveway on my return. The thermometer did read 100 degrees again today.
Their pools are all clean, they've been watered multiple times; they seem peaceful, except when something shows up in the valley and they gather to watch...usually deer, sometimes a fox or rabbits. No more snakes lately, but many dead shrews. They kill them as soon as they see them. And one dead frog.
I did get a wonderful swim in to day. long and relaxing.
