The unmistakable scent of fall was heavy in the air yesterday morning on my hike, and the first hints of gold are starting to show in the higher altitude vegetation. Summer has peaked and the long, gradual slide toward autumn has begun.

Yeah... I'm trying.

Now I've got a sick horse. Had the vet out yesterday on an emergency call (Sunday=$$$$$$). She thinks he's had a heat stroke and now can't thermoregulate. He's all kinds of messed up. She had to ask me that horrible question: "Is this a horse you would send to WSU for treatment?" In otherwords "is he worth the money to save?" Can life get any more fucked up at the moment? Probably shouldn't ask. Lost another barn cat last week too.

Yup, sorry KQ. I hope your horse is doing better today. Get a keg tub full of ice and rub that horse down.

Thanks for all the thoughts everyone. Still trying to figure out what's going on with him. Treating him for an ulcer right now. He's not a happy boy. So hard when animals are sick. I imagine it's worse with kids but at least they reach and age where they can tell you what hurts.

In weather news: That's brutal seano. We're on tap for three days of 100+ temps this weekend flanked by upper 90s on either end. Ugh. Yesterday it rained - cloudy and 71. It was pure heaven.

Me too - actually at least 7 days of 105 +/- highs. Making up for a relatively mild summer.

Boom!!!! The heat finally showed up. Next 10 days are mid 80's which is 90 in the house without the AC going 24/7. Time for SDG&E to make some money off me for the next month.

Our basement bedrooms are 59 degrees in the summer. It's a great sleeping temp but the kids like to complain about it every so often.

That sounds nice. 62 in the AM here. No cooling system in my adobe place. I open the windows wide at night, close them almost all the way during the day. That manages to keep it below 80 degrees inside at worst.
