It is HOT! Mom!  HOT!

I NEED IN!  MOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!

Hot isn’t too bad…I can do hot!  I just hang in the shade.

What I can’t do is the wind!!!

Hot and WIND!  I need in, also!

(We need rain…to settle the dust and to cool us down. It can rain anytime now, but come next week—no, rain—we will be cutting the alfalfa for the second time this year)
