Clancy is nearly ready for riding, or at least I can do some ground work with her- but not in this heat.
There is a fire on the mountain south of us, it's actually about 5 miles into Idaho, so over 10 miles from us but looks closer.
It just started this afternoon, I hope they get it out soon because the bush is tinder dry here.
I mostly leave the girls in their pen- I have very little pasture, and their pen is over 100ft long so they have lots of room, just very boring for them. They got a little turnout yesterday, I put their fly masks on for turnout because the flies bug them there, but don't seem to pester them as much in their dry lot.

I have my winter hay paid for- actually, I feed hay all year round, so I plan for bales to last right up to first cut next year. I have 16 big square bales coming , at 3 weeks per bale that will get me through 48 weeks, plus I have 80 small square bales. I'm set, just waiting for the equipment to get the bales delivered.
Josie is really growing and filling out... maybe a little too much, she looks kind of fluffy! Really excited to start working her, was hoping for this weekend but that's not going to happen; way too hot. Think we'll go to the lake with the dogs tomorrow.

It's been a hot one this summer. Wildfires are so scary. 10 miles sounds close. Hope they get it controlled & put out. Looking forward to hearing about how Josie progresses. Stay cool!!
keep cool, and safe!
Its a hot one here too. So glad Clancy is moving around again :) Had so many plans of riding but not when its like this. Hope the fire doesn't reach you, we are pretty lucky not too many prairie fires this year which seems weird since its so dry.
