Yeah:)

~chuckling~

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

I’m bad aren’t I:)

Cheap entertainment tho.

[HairOfTheDog]

I guess so.

Just don’t go getting yourself in any fisticuffs.

You’re reminding me of my mother now, she used to pull over log trucks that she thought were stacked too high.

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

LOL...I’m not even going to step outside. I’ll be able to hear anything said from in here:)

[HairOfTheDog]

Heh... good. Well, if you do get into fisticuffs, at least have Kristy take pictures! :~D

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

They’ve all left. I’m here alone. I should mention that it appeared the people in the two cars were related and met here. So there should be some conversation:)

[HairOfTheDog]

Oh great. Well... there go the pictures. ;~\

[HairOfTheDog]

~whew~

Well, vacuuming’s done. Ugh... it’s over 90.

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

Really??!!! It’s nice here this evening. We had a bit of rain, and it cooled off pretty nice.

[HairOfTheDog]

We're in a heat wave for the next few days... 90s and threatening us with 100. I bet we don't go riding ;~)

I just took a really cold bath though and I feel better.

I mean really cold. When I layed back and wet my hair I let out a Yoooooowp!

[PayNoAttentionManBehindCurtain]

We have rain and cooler temperatures for today.

I got out and mowed some this morning, but it’s so wet and the grass had gotten so thick and tall, that altho it’s shorter now, it doesn’t look very good because of all the clumps.

[HairOfTheDog]

Good morning - or afternoon where you are eh?

We’ve managed breakfast and we have to go get hay, then we may shampoo the carpets with the shampooer we got for Christmas and haven’t used yet! Hot days are good for that. :~)

Supposed to get to 94.

[Duchess47]

Congratulations on the new homes for the dog, the cat and the horse. Time to buy a lottery ticket, you are on a winning streak :)

[HairOfTheDog]

Just One Good Horse.

Well, so much for the temporary fence around the apple tree in the back forty...

Pony, if you notice, can't reach any of the apples (any more) so she waits to grab the ones Cyn shakes down.

Now BAY, MY horse, would never cross that tape, even laying on the ground. He's a GOOD BOY! :~)

The mares, on the other hand, have spoiled their opportunity to be in the back forty at all now until we can get all the apples off of that tree. :~\

Ecurbh wants to just cut it down tomorrow. It's nothing but an attractive nuisance out there, right in the hot part of summer when it would be nice to offer them the back forty for it's shade.

[Duchess47]

Will the apples hurt them? Why did you fence off the tree - I must have missed something.

[HairOfTheDog]

Because there’s hundreds on that tree. They’d colic on that many. And when they fall to the ground and start fermenting, I think it’d be even worse.

[HairOfTheDog]

Here... this closeup maybe shows how many there are.

[Duchess47]

Well, I sure do envy you your apple tree :) I’d love to have that here. I never knew horses to do that, especially when there is grass around. I know deer and goats do though - pick apples I mean. Must be that mustang blood in Cyn, she’s obviously the ring leader and you should send her to Nevada :)

[HairOfTheDog]

I wish the deer would! This morning there was a deer in the neighbor’s garden, where she’s not welcome, and she’d be welcome to come have apples at my house!

But Cyn.... Cyn’s bad. You don’t want her. :~)
