MJ's little flock

That should work.

They’re still hanging around it today, even though it’s not hot. Now I know I can do something on hot days when they will be stuck in the run all day.

Interesting fact here...

Horses in hot humid climates can develop anhydrous. It's the inability to sweat and therefore cool themselves down.

It has been discovered, and highly practiced, that a pint of Guinness a day helps horses to sweat.

That's wild. My Goodness!

I can't help feeling the horses sponsored that study!

I want to fund that study in humans!

I really love this idea and plan to deploy it if it gets really hot next summer.

What a pair of gorgeous fur chickens!

They say thank you.

One of Ivy's most endearing traits is that she prefers to gambol from a to b rather than walk or run

That should be video, just saying.

The Coolgardy safe, chicken-style.

The water is only just on, so it’s leaking onto the hessian. It’s very windy today and this garden is considerably cooler.

That is amazingly clever. I love it. Great job.

Got an egg from the Pegasaurus today. First one since she went on the sick list

Funny to hear all this talk about the heat when WE’re here freezing in SC, where it isn’t supposed to get cold.

You're tea
Freezing in SC and it is balmy here in PA. 60°F (15.5°C) for a high tomorrow.

It's been blissful!

I even went out for lunch and a bit of a rummage around the market yesterday. Found myself a new old teacup and was given a tarnished old EPNS coffee pot and creamer. Can't wait to give them a bicarb soda hot bath and see how they come up.

I'll do a before/after shot for ACM shame the hinge on the coffee pot is wonky.

What lovely finds. I look forward to before and after.
