Hot, Hot!

It has been very, very hot here. Yesterday it was 34 degrees Celsius. Which is like 94ish I believe Fahrenheit.

All I know is we felt like we were melting. I don't know how people handle 100 plus weather! We had the soaker hose, 4 fans(3 on stands, and one industrial) going in the barn, plus we were misting the rabbits, and soaking the air in the barn which seemed to help quite a bit. We couldn't get the barn down under 28 though. The best we found was closing everything up so only the back windows were open(5) and then of course all the ventilation on the tops of the barn, and that kept the barn cooler. Then we opened up the other windows as soon as the sun started to go down(at least not as intense!)

Tomorrow we are hoping it won't be nearly as hot so we can go through the Mini lop litters. We will have a bunch of pet babies for sale(well a few from each litter I'm sure anyway), that we would like to post for sale.

We took the dogs to the beach this morning. They were perfect until we headed back to the truck. Then they started to act up, but they did really well otherwise. We saw about 10 purple starfish.

Not much new rabbit wise. We have 7 does due next Thursday(not this coming but the following). I think that is the 10th? Anyway 7 does due, and we will finalize who we are keeping from our 28 older babies this week. Then Maggie's will be old enough to type in the next week or two!
