If you're Holly the donkey, you take a nap in the sun:
You move over just a bit to accommodate the friend who decides to join you:
and politely ignore the dust he generates from his rolling around:
And then you immediately doze off in the sun again:
If only it were just a *bit* warmer...
102! In Oregon! I didn't think that was possible. It doesn't even get that hot in New Mexico...usually. At least your critters have plenty of shade if they want it.
ReplyDeleteI'm having fun learning about donkeys through your posts! They are creatures that make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteWow, 102 up there? I thought Oregon was cool and moist all the time. I think we were cooler here today than you were.
ReplyDeleteWow I thought only Daisy Lu laid in the sun when it was HOT!! They're CRAZY!!!
ReplyDeleteGosh, are folks just dropping like flies? The donks don't seem to mind it too much.
ReplyDeleteI love the little extra "chicken little" figurine to go with the temperature gauge. He looks like "oh my, oh my!!"
Oh yuck, I am glad it hasn't been that hot here in Ohio!
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics of the bugs and other critters. They are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteId say she has the right idea! Did you remind her to use sunscreen?
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed that in that kind of heat they are laying out in the sun. I am so glad it is cooling down here. Is it there?
ReplyDeleteIt must have been like the Weather Super Bowl for your weather loving hubby:)
Are you sure that's the right temp? Which thermometer is that? Did you consult all the other thermometers? Did you average at all the readings? I mean you need to be sure, right?
ReplyDeleteI so enjoy reading your posts.... the critter post was awesome!

Yikes! That's too hot---for ANY critter!
ReplyDelete102 in Oregon??? Is that normal? It's been an uncommonly cool summer here in Ohio.
ReplyDeleteGood grief my friend! I was whinning about the heat while I was laying in front of the air conditioner on Sat! I'm glad to see that little Miss Holly doesn't seem to mind that much! :-) Are you guys going to be around this weekend? We were thinking of stopping by!!
ReplyDelete102? Yuck! Its not even been that warm for a long while here in Hot Dry Kansas! My parents have a rottweiler who pants all the time, has to have a fan blowing on her, but if you let her out in the summer, she goes and lies in the sun. Go figure!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info on blog tracker! As soon as I have time, I'll set it up!
Well at least when they relieve themselves the stench isn't that bad on a hot day like this.....yeah righhhhhhttt...sounds like a clothespin on the nose day.,,kinda like 102 degrees when its garbage night in NYC as I roll my windows up to live through another day.
ReplyDeleteAren't donkeys funny? I had a little BLM burro for a few years and he wasn't happy unless it was above 100* and he could sleep in his dust hole. Too stinkin' cute how they fluff their tail and send up little "smoke signals." I miss my donkey, mind if I stop by and enjoy yours?
ReplyDeleteI found you over at Tammy's Wren Song Farm.

Poor guys. Rolling around in the dust cracks me up but it must feel good.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog. I have to comment anon because my laptop doesn't do blogger for some reason......
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, I'm Remudamom, mind if I drop in sometimes and read your posts?
