Hi Dancergirl.

How are the horses?
You must be up to you elbows in work...
:^)

Do you own a horse?

There are alot of farms near where I live. Many of them have horses. One farm in particular has two beautiful horses that look like they might be quarter horses or something. The two of them are always out on the nice days. I like to drive by slowly and watch them.

I notice that they appear to lie down to sleep.
I was always under the assumption that horses sleep standing up?
Are these weird horses or am I mistaken?
The first time I noticed it, I thought something happened to the friendly animals.
Somewhat concerned, I stopped and beeped my horn. As I did the horse turned it's head and gave me a look like, "What does this idiot want? Beep you!"

I smiled and drove away.

One day I think I'll bring them a few apples...

Remind me to tell you about my the time I went horse back riding in Antigua. It wasn't fun...
The horse hated me so much he tried to take a leak on me...

...as I layed on my back after falling with my boot still in the stirrup...
