Mid July.  And, this week its going to be hot.  Ugg. My horses prefer standing in the barn, to being outside, which really I can’t blame them. I have these enormous biting flies, and then this black deer fly shaped flies, that are wicked biters…  so our turn out schedule has altered, with everyone getting turned out, late after noon, usually after 3, to stretch their legs, and graze for a bit.  I also hate to ride in this heat, I find I am getting to be less or a rider, and more of just a horse keeper,  I find myself  just not up to getting out and getting on.  I need to change that… but, with temps going into the hight 80’s,  it won’t be today,,,, Off to hay… have a great day.
