what the herd was up to. Our horses never cease to amaze me in that they can find the most
mundane things to amuse themselves. I have to apologize for the quality of the pictures. The gate
leading to the field was locked and I didn’t have the key with me so the pictures are taken from far
away. Even with the telescopic adjustment it seems they aren’t up close and personal enough. If I
was more agile I might have climbed the fence and walked in but my fence – hopping days are
over.

Seems he just needed a fresh palette to show off his artistic talents |

Nate checking out the interesting new playpen |
Sami sampling the all-you-can-eat-grass-buffet. I guess it's true, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. |
Blue never gets involved with their silly antics |
Until next time

There on the tips of fair fresh flowers feedeth he
How joyous is his neigh
There in the midst of sacred pollen hidden all hidden he
How joyous is his neigh

Just beautiful! Looks like they have wonderful places to enjoy and explore.
ReplyDeleteThsnks for the smile :)
ReplyDeleteLoved the photos and seeing the surrounding area. What a paradise you have. The horses look so tranquil in that setting. (I've said it before, I'm calling a moving van.)
ReplyDeleteOh That Was Just Lovely, Exploring That Best Play Pen Ever!!
ReplyDeleteBlue, So Funny How He Just Doesn't Bother.
I Adore That Song! I May Need To Borrow That Sometime.
I'm So Glad You Stopped, And Didn't Get Any Closer...The Far Off Ponies, Doing Their Thing Was Perfect
Can I just have a small corner of your lovely paradise? Your horses must think they've died and have arrived to heaven with those surroundings.
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine...
ReplyDelete"And this is a 20 metre circle.... this is how you change the rein across the diagonal.... and ooh look I've drawn a face in the sand!"
Beautiful conditions for working outside. Love the perspective on these pictures...happy ponies.
ReplyDeleteThey are so funny. I would tack them all up and have my own private dressage show down there since they are so keen on entering the arena! :)
ReplyDeleteSomething my Boys would do. Every time I go out there to do the simplest task, if the Boys see me, they are at my elbow checking it out. Anything even remotely new or different needs thorough checking.
ReplyDeleteI can just hear your herd discussing the footing. "Gee, this is nice." "Wait a minute, does that mean she's going to ride us in here?" No wonder Blue pretends indifference. *G*
Aawww, how cute, like little kids left to their own devices and amusing themselves, no problem! Pictures turned out great :D
ReplyDeleteThey were practicing their very free free walk :)
ReplyDeleteYour arena looks wonderful, as do the horses!
