522. I have an old mare just like that.

Sat Aug 19, 2017, 01:46 PM

Aug 2017

She is still ribby and I too have been fighting it with her all summer and it has been so so hot. The day we hit 126 heat index I was surprised any of the critters made it, including me!

Mine I cannot boost with different food choices or she gets the runs. Back and forth. One more winter I think, she has not seemed terribly upset about it all and she gets a double stall with fans and a mister during the day and of course she loves showing it off to the others out in the heat. I think she still has time.

We are about 100 miles from the total eclipse. We will be headed North to try and meet up with some cousins and annoy some farmers up there by parking along their road. Knowing how I would feel about others coming on the farm or putting a bunch of crap on the grass we will be courteous, stay on the side of the road and not do that. I am bringing a card to put in the box thanking them if they let us stay. I imagine even here it will be busy but it will not be full.

I hope it does not get worse for you this weekend. Enjoy the eclipse, I am looking forward to it. The adventure will be the fun part I suppose since it is supposed to get cloudy and rain here. It will still get very dark and that in itself will be interesting.

Have a great school year.
