As you know if you visit my blog often, we watch alot of westerns, John Wayne, in particular in this family. and a familiar scene is one of the hot days and warm nights and of course someone getting thrown in the horse water trough. Well this past weekend, we spent alot of time walking a horse that is colicing and not doing well. We were up at 11:30 pm in the dark walking him or sitting and listening to him sleep in silence. My hubby and I sat in the moonlight and listened to the desert as it cooled hand in hand. just praying that our friends horse will get over this hump and make it. During the day, we spent it in the sun so a little warmer. So we have a barely used trough. We filled it with water and my son was the happiest ever seen. It is deep enough to even get out the snorkle. I am not sure my hubby was to thrilled I was gonna add a picture of him in the trough, but a cowboy cooling off in the heat. woohoo. Life is good!
And here is the kiddo just floating later by himself. this patio is the one on our hobby barn. It is a nice place for us to cool off and hang out.

We used to freeze gallon milk jugs of water and toss them in the hot tub to help cool off in the summer. You would think it would take a lot but one or two really do make a difference.
The pictures are priceless!

That’s a great pic, and OUCH! About your toe. Hope that the horse is feeling better. 🙁
