    I saw a post on Craigslist today, someone was giving away a pony. I was glad my kids don't check the free section of CL like I do! :)

    Horses are so pretty. They kind of freak me out though. They always seem so much bigger than I think they are going to be. Ha! Does that even make sense?! :)

    Aww she's beautiful. I think horses (and deer) are the most elegant, regal animals there are.
