It's A  Hard Life, Monument Valley

Uploaded: February 09, 2011

Description

Photo was taken in Monument Valley, Utah. There was very little food and no water in this area so I'm guessing these horses were cared for by the local Navajo Indians. I did see some in a different area running loose with halters on.

Have a Great Day
