Beating the Heat

Hard to believe this early in the year it is already 95 degrees in the shade.  When it gets this hot is is a good idea to break out the sprinklers for the kids. They love it.

Sammy and Dino playing in the sprinkler.

Alpacas and Llamas are particularly susceptible to the heat so we are doing everything we can to make them comfortable. Spraying their legs and bellies helps them cool down. Kind of like taking off your shoes and dipping your feet in the creek I suppose.
