Hey everyone!

This month I have some interesting catagories!

First, I would love to see your uses for Bailing twine!

Second, Show me how you cool down in this heat. This can be equine and non-equine.

Third, I want to see your horses tricks. What can they do ?

Good luck everyone! Now get those cameras out and take some pictures!

gingerfleguel · 08-01-2007, 09:22 AM

Well I guess I have some photos on-hand so i will go ahead and submit my entries

Here are a few for How we cool down in the summer

Image and I ride into the water and Image does this pawing into the water and gets us both soaked ...

And of course Mocha being a Lab...she easily cools herself down everyday of the week in the back yard.

And For the other Category Horse Tricks....well my horse can Yell really loud...hahaha see.....I think hes screaming "Stop taking pictures of me!!!!!"

After absolutely melting in 100 degree weather in Las Vegas, we took our camper and babies (pets) to Colorado. Within 24 hours we had finally cooled off...in 6 inches of snow. This is a picture of our "puppy" April after coming in from a walk in the snow. If this doesn't cool off a hot day, I don't know what does

Lots of entries for 'Beat the Heat'

Lu keeps cool by drinking plenty of fresh (and sometimes not-so-fresh) water
...

... and staying indoors.

Baby OSU horses beat the heat by resting in their mothers' shadow.

Crabs beat the heat with biweekly baths:

Tigers at the Houston Zoo beat the heat in their enclosure's pond:

Jillybeans beat the heat by going fishing:

mkyamse · 08-06-2007, 09:18 PM

To stay cool, we like to play on the waterslide.

Or swim in the pool.

My niece thought she was going to be funny and push me in the pool. Let's just say I won, and she ended up in the drink cooler.

RollingThunder · 08-06-2007, 11:14 PM

Easy ... I just think back to the good ol' days when it was about 5 degrees.

Heck, even some time in the fall would be better than the 110 heat indexes they are predicting for us. Gotta love Illinois. That's Thunder getting a belly rub for sitting.

Beat the Heat

Here in Ontario it's been so hot and dry! We finally got some rain, but it's still muggy. My cows are doing their best to beat the heat by standing out in the rain. Usually they'll all run up to the barn when it starts to spit!

Shorty, Shadow and Kendra

And here we have Bindy trying to eat my umbrella!

When we first got Yeti home, she took to the water bucket...
