Both my beloved Braveheart and Clementine the lawn mower seem to much 
prefer the cooler temps.  On Memorial Day, when it was so hot, Clementine 
actually gave up grass consumption in the pasture and came into the barn the 
barn 
where it's much cooler to hang out.  I can identify...on Memorial Day I went to 
see The DaVinci Code.  Of course, I like Tom Hanks but I really like him in an 
air-conditioned theater.

Kay, who's staying in the shade
and Braveheart, who's loyally pulling his buggy but muttering under his breath
and Clementine, who thinks she should have gone with me to the movies. 


Fjords and heat....Memorial Day.

I was wondering if any of the rest of you have noticed this.  Olaf much
prefers the cooler/cold weather.  When it gets warmer/hot, he looks at me like
I am crazy if I think he is going to 'go' anywhere very fast--except for food.
I was wondering if others see this especially in areas where there is
definately seasons and severe temp. changes.

I also know Olaf can 'bamboozle' me with the look of 'gee, it is just TOO hot
today to go for a trail ride, how about a nice walk instead.'  Oh and by walk
I mean we take a nice stroll along the path so he can grab a mouthful of soft
green grass every now and then and maybe cool his 'toes' in a shallow
river--he LOVES water.

I know conditioning is important, I just notice every spring and summer when
the temps go up, that Olaf seems to react to it  and just seems to prefer the
cooler temps.

Everyone have a wonderful Memorial Day and take a moment to remember those who
have given us the freedom we enjoy.
