Bugs & More

Saddled up at about 7 yesterday morning to beat the heat.  We were back in the barn at about 8.  We beat the heat, but not the horse flies and deer flies.  At one point I counted 6 deer flies chewing on my horse's neck at the same time.  She didn't freak out, but was certainly anxious to get out of there. 

I think we'll probably skip the trail riding for a while.  The heat and high humidity has invigorated the small flying carnivores.
