Trail Ride

Today was trail ride day. We had a great time at the A-OK Corral. Gwenn, Ella and Viivi went on the ride, while Lucy and I hung out at the corral. Thanks to the wrangler who took over 30 minutes and just hung out, letting Lucy sit on the horse and "pony around" the corral. It was fantastic!

It's been hotter than crap here. Honestly, weather in Seattle does not prepare you for nice weather anywhere else. It reached 94 today, with super low humidity. At night it's down into the 40's, so the cool off is great - but takes until after 10p to cool the house off. We played at some of the streams on the property today, and in the auto sprinklers that keep the young trees alive.

Tonight Gwenn is running a fever - I'm not sure if it's just mild heat stroke, or if something is going on. She has been fairly healthy, and now that she is back on her meds she is doing great! Her weight is almost 60 pounds - a weight that frankly I never thought I would see for her until she was older. The feeding tube is certainly making a difference - although I'm concerned that the minute she is off of it, her weight will plummet since she does still not eat orally.

Here are pics from our day...
