Trailing behind

Trailing way behind. I am waiting for the many ears of corn I cut off and blanched to cool down for bagging. The guard dogs are having a hard time in this heat. Wag and Kate are under the barn floor trying to find a cooler spot. Wolf will tough it out with his flock, he will not leave them. Sunshine and her lamb are better since I sheared them, Sunshine was immediately better, it took her son several days to straighten out his back, he was humped up and his back legs trembling, a sure sign of heat stress. But it is even hotter than last week and the rain has stopped. This can really take a toll on the pastures and the sheep.
