Just put in an offer for the land next door!

Gelding amazes me all the time! Got done hanging the big fan in the barn and turned it on just as the horses came back in. Rams stayed with me and watched.
Gelding has never seen a fan, but it didn't phase him what so ever! He's there now, standing in front of it, hogging up most of the air, lol!
Some air still makes it over to the ewes. I'm going to move it to blow on just the ewes and put up an extra box fan I have in the shed to blow on the horses. But I'll wait until temps aren't 97 to do that.

Details!!!!! We need details! Living where I live I feel down right silly that I don't already own one (or twelve) of these!

I'm going to take pics of it when I'm done to post and share.

Pics!
The fan hung up with old horse halters, lol.

Pond is 5ft deep, possibly deeper. DH got the kayak. I'm returning the 1 sided paddle and getting the 2 sided one. This one is too annoying to use.

And lastly, pics of the ice vest prototype! Pretty slim fit!
These are large size mens tees.....idk what kind of men they know of, but it's more of a medium women's dress size!!
It's like those dresses that are heck to get back off....I'm sure most of you have tried one of those on before. But it will work for now. A zipper should be added in the future. Bottom end I'll roll up and sew together to use as a sweat and condensation catcher, so it doesn't dribble on pants or saddle and such.

Doesn't that get pretty danged cold right next to your skin (thin layer of cloth)?

 

[secuono]

2 layers of cotton between skin and ice.
But I'll be trying it out tomorrow.

How are you securing the ice pack thingy's? Did you put a pocket in the t-shirt...or ????

 

[secuono]

I broke my sewing machine, or rather....idk, messed it up a bit by accident....so hand sewing.

I sewed 2 shirts together by sewing squared U shapes, making pockets.

 

[frustratedearthmother]

That'll work! Thanks for the idea, I need to get busy!

 

[secuono]

Well, I need to make smaller pockets so the front packs don't fold up.

And I need a belt to keep them close to my skin.

But otherwise, it worked well!

Put the duckies on the pond
