Photo taken on a Hill Country back road somewhere between Austin and Fredericksburg, TX. While watching miles and miles of glorious wildflower meadows pass by, suddenly 2 white horses appeared in the middle of one...a definite "STOP-THE-CAR" moment and a quick-reflexed husband obliged (with a lot of screeching brakes and flying gravel...)

  One would think that your wonderful hubby was kowtowing to your every whim, but we can see that he is a wise man who knows that a bit of gravel tossed can produce a wonderful photo when the camera is in your hands. Thanks, man! You, too, Val!
