90 degrees

Ugh; that's all I have to say. The temperature was fluctuating between 85 and 90 degrees as I drove to the barn after work, depending on whether I was on the blacktop or on a dirt road in the shade.

When I got there, all the horses had their doors open with stall guards and were totally dozey. I hosed Dude and Bestie, mucked their stalls, cleaned out their feet and that was pretty much it.

While I was mucking his stall Dude was on the crossties. The photo says it all - the energy level in the barn was pretty low!
