Humid Morning

The weather so far this month has been disappointing. This morning we walked from Telegraph and it was very warm and Humid. The dogs are being bothered by the crab flys . We spent a lot of the walk taking flys off the dogs and when I got home I took another two off Missy and one from Raffles. I have tried all sorts of things to stop the flys from settling on the dogs but nothing seems to deter them. They are horrible things and I do not know what useful purpose they serve but we have to put up with them. I pity the poor ponies who have no escape from them.
