She's not coming out until the air conditioning comes on...

Ohhhweee...it is hot in these parts. The air is thick and still...and not a wisp of wind in sight.

That means there is a lot of fans, electrolytes and hose downs for these two...especially Miss Thing here. She can really struggle with the heat....and I have to keep a close eye on her...which means extra cookies and trips to down to the barn.

A lot of draft horses, especially Gypsy Vanners, tend to struggle in the heat. Their native climate is England which is definitely not Tennessee. They have a real danger of heat stroke...especially if something spooks them and they decide the "nothing monster" is chasing them and start running around. 

This morning there was a killer rooster that appeared on the neighbors fence line. Apparently, neither one of them had ever seen a rooster before and they were pretty convinced that their lives hung in the balance. I finally managed to calm them down with breakfast.

Here is to hoping this heat wave breaks soon!

Finishing up the collection this weekend and hoping to have some sneak peeks for you next week....If you have not joined our VIP Inner Circle we would love to have you...you get first dibs on all upcoming collections.
