    I sure miss my horses. All have passed on and went to horse heaven.

    I too, could basically do whatever I wanted with my horses and I really enjoyed the bond I had with each one I owned over the years.

    Take Care.

  44. Hi Donna -- Thanks for the visit.
    My horse, Minnie, too went to heaven. I rode her to high school [Nebraska] for two years.
    Is Libby a 10-meter horse? She looks like a kind pony.
    p.s. I'm envious of the Gold Wing.

  45. I am fascinated by the eyes of animals. One of the first things I have done with each new (and improved) camera/lens combo is see how much better I can do pictures of eyes!

    And, Blue's are definitely beautiful!
