Still Smokey

The air quality index was around 63 this morning, went up to 120 and now is at 107.  Fortunately the humidity was not too bad with a high of 84.

Rebel was in Buddy's stall and was giving him some body language when it was time to switch to his own for breakfast.

Chores were done in a jiffy and the boys were ok with being in the pasture.  They stay out there much longer when it's not so hot.

For some reason, this hibiscus plant popped 4 new blossoms on the same day.

Gary went to yoga and out to lunch.  I picked some beets and 

pickled a couple jars.  Tomorrow I will make a huge bean salad.  Reving up for all the company we are going to have starting on Thursday.

Gary grilled a piece of chicken and I make salads for dinner....

The tomatoes, cukes and red cabbage were from our garden.  We are off to a slow start this year, especially with the tomatoes.

Bread was courtesy of Chet....the bread man.

Went out for chores a little after 8.  There was a nice breeze and was around 70 degrees.

I think Rebel has been much more comfortable since I clipped him.

The barn was very comfortable.

This is the first day in 9 years that Little Wonder did not want to go with me for morning or evening chores.  Weird.

Night all.
