This Gorgeous Horse Was For Hire At
A Campgroud We Stayed In.
When I Looked At Him, I Saw Nothing Else. So Beautiful.
I Thought Using The Glass Filter on PSE7
Was A Perfect Choice To Express This.

Rey, I had never thought of it that way but now that you mention it, it did feel like I was standing there with Royalty!
I've always been a bit afraid of horses but I can tell you, they were all so friendly at this Ranch/Petting zoo. My heart has changed about it.

Steve, this was such a special horse! Very kind and nice.

Sister, these horses totally made me have second thoughts about how they might be able to be wonderful pets and friends to have. I felt instantly connected to every horse that came up to the fence. One snuggled up to me. It was precious! I felt his sweet heart against mine when he laid his head across me and nudged!
I'll share more of them in this thread later. :)
Thank you all!

A N Y W A Y ....
I am not a horse person because my Sister got bit in the foot by one as a kid but now being grown up, when I am around them, I am curious about them.
Kiki tells me that horses are wonderful and that they totally have personalities and can be very loving and a best friend like any dog or kitty can be. So I see horses in a new light.
This horse was so very beautiful and so very cute and funny and FRIENDLY that I was really taken in by him/her. It was a very special horse to me.
Thank you both so much for all you said.
Love you both,
Laura :) #10771857
