Yes, it's only mid-May, but it sure feels like summer already! As I write this, at 4:30 in the afternoon, it's 86 degrees in the shade. Our average max temperature for Ovando in May is 63 degrees. Missoula yesterday hit 90 degrees, breaking a record set in 1905. The animals, of course, love the warm, sunny mornings ... here's blind and deaf Spinner, sleeping on a cot by our back door in the morning sun ... but by early afternoon they are ready for a nap indoors!
For a lot of reasons -- drought, fire season, pasture grass -- we need a return to cool, wet weather as soon as possible.
You can't get much cuter than this picture! I'll send some California fog your way to cool you all down. :-)

This is truly a dog's life.....snoozing in the sun! Spinner, you look so adorable and comfy on that cot!
