Lunar Eclipse

I Did not stay up to watch the lunar eclipse, but my husband did take pics for me. I was excited about that. I was too tired to stay up and watch it, so I was just going to miss it, but I did not have to completely miss it. 


Athena

Athena has been sick. I was not sure what was going on. She did get to the vet and it was decided she had a bladder infection. She is getting antibiotics and she got fluids at the vet. She is still not feeling great, but that went on for a few days, so she is better than she was. She scared me. I thought she was not going to make it. 





Quail

I got to see a bunch of quail in the front yard. It was such a beautiful sight. I tried to get closer, but of course, I scared them off. They all flew across the road. It is not a sight I have seen often. We do have some quail around, but I have not seen that many at one time. 


Funny Sight

I Went out early to feed the animals. I actually went over to see the donkeys and goats since they were all still sleepy. I saw the funniest sight, Ned was using Lucky as a pillow. I remember the time when Ned hated those goats. I am glad they love each other now. 


Banana

Banana did not run away tonight. I mean, he did not let me get too close, but he did not run away from me. All three of the other cats were around also and they were all getting along. It was nice to see and know that he is still here more than I know and he does get along with the other cats. 





The Cows

I caught the cows grooming each other. It really was a cute little moment.  I was taking some photos and once they looked up and saw me there they looked like I was intruding. That made me laugh out loud for a minute. It was such a funny thing to see. Those two sure do love each other and I am so grateful they have each other. 



So Hot

The days around here have been so hot. It is just miserable how hot things have been. The horses have been hot and I have enjoyed being able to spray them down when they tolerate it. Chief is the only one that hates it. The rest of them will fight over the water. Jeb will even drink out of the hose like a human, that is super funny. I keep spraying them every time I can. I am ready for the weather to cool down and I know they are, too.
