Just Horsin' Around ..


This last week while we were out "Horsin" around .. we drove down one of our favorite farm roads. 

One of my favorite farm roads because on it we pass 2 farms that have "Clydesdales"

Oh how I have loved these horses since I was a little girl. 

I used to tell my parents when I was little I was going to have a Clydesdale when I grew up .. and well that hasn't come true .. kind of like when we were driving in the car when I was oh somewhere about 10 we passed a car I was enamored with .. I told my mom that's the car I wanted when I grew up .. it was a Rolls Royce !!! .. Yeah that hasn't happened either .. LOL ! 

Well I'm truly home here in the Ozarks surround by beautiful countrysides and farm land .. flowing streams and rivers abundant trees and green pastures and calm, quiet, days. It's the life I was meant for. 

I love all the critters be they pets, farm animals or the wild turkey, and deer .. the odd skunk and opossum ..or the little turtles that try to make their way across the farm roads .. and of course I can't leave out the birds that sing so heavenly. 

But on this day we headed out .. at the top of my list were the Clydesdales ! .. These gentle Giants with their stunning gaits and feathered legs .. their gallant strides and their sweet faces steal my heart every time I lay eyes on them. 

It's time for the Mare's to Foal .. so their were youngin's and their mama's out in their pastures .. on one side of the road .. and on the opposite side were the adults just grazing and giving the occasional whinny ! .. A horse song to behold.

Of all days I had my camera with me .. so I got a few shots of these majestic creatures .. to share with you all .. Enjoy !














Until Next Time ..

    1. Hi Rose .. Oh thanks so much ..that first photo was just one of those few shots you happen to take that turn out good. When I got home and was going through them that was my favorite for the very same reason the light feel just perfectly for the hairs on it's belly and tail to glimmer and shine .. I never thought of Icicles but that's a beautiful interpretation ! Thanks so much for stopping by ! ..Blessings ..Sara
