<< Try to stay cool. A good suggestion for the horses is to strap a hose with nozzle set on fine mist to the fence with a bungee cord so they can come stand in the spray voluntarily. Even the ones that don't actually get wet, benefit from the local cooling by evaporation. >> Last summer I went to our county fair. They were selling two different types of misters, one, free standing, about 2 feet off the ground (but could be adjusted to run along the top of a stall, and the other hose-like, with mist openings every foot or so, for 10 feet. They attach to your hose and a fine, cool spray comes out. Very handy when temps are over 80 degrees. Pamela
