As well as Arabians I have Saddlebreds. They are interesting and expressive horses.<br /><br />Ganeida, I'm glad it is cooler and I wish I could see you running around your paddock. Unfortunately, we don't have tails to flip over our backs as we frolic!<br /><br />gsc, party indeed! I am going to be satisfied to get it done.<br /><br />Lorac, I left my camera on so the battery is dead. Otherwise I'd be happy to show those photos!<br /><br />Jules, I guess these are my family photos. : )Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13915962999372304054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3638850181807914586.post-13555697721700883022010-04-27T23:42:41.416-05:002010-04-27T23:42:41.416-05:00love the in motion picslove the in motion picsJust Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09842126422147340390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3638850181807914586.post-40557370389585047412010-04-27T18:09:17.414-05:002010-04-27T18:09:17.414-05:00The horses do look full of vim and vinegar!

I miss my horses, I have missed them since I moved to this country. I missed their energy, their hard head attitude (and their hard heads resting on mine as if to claim property). It has been years since I was riding in Eastern Oregon, feeling I could keep going and going.<br /><br />The body betrays us in subtle ways and some times it robs us of what we take for granted without a thought. But I still love them, I love to watch them move, wondering <br />14 hands? 15 hands? My Moro was 15 hands, pretty average for an Arabian and gorgeous as the day is long. I don't miss many things from the salad days, but that is one still that I will always miss.<br /><br />Your horses are gorgeous and you are some lucky lady. I know, the work is exhausting at times but look at them: poetry in motion.<br />Thanks for the memories and I expect more photos of them as the Summer comes.A.Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06947308878002639964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3638850181807914586.post-9197959010469110612010-04-27T12:20:11.243-05:002010-04-27T12:20:11.243-05:00Teri, they can be entertaining.

Or me!<br /><br />Bonnie, I call them crazy horses. : ) I am almost as looney as they are, so I may actually start to run circles!<br /><br />Deb, you have no idea what kind of photos could be had of me. Yikes! I own 23 horses. This is the gelding (castrated) herd.<br /><br />Judy, they can be wild at times. Some of them think they are fast like your thoroughbreds! They are not. : )<br /><br />deb, I like to read you thoughts. I'm not all that deep, so I may not always know for sure if I get it, but I do recognize something worth reading when I see it.<br /><br />I have garage doors to paint. Oh well. Rolkur is one of many horrid things we of the so-called superior beings do to horses. I don't know why horses don't kill us and be done with it. Or at least maim the very large group of people who mishandle and abuse them. It would be so easy.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13915962999372304054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3638850181807914586.post-88003873226464190052010-04-27T11:37:23.940-05:002010-04-27T11:37:23.940-05:00will do, off to plant some new perennials,

I want to never stop learning.
