    My favorite horse-not for contest

    The greys are not the favored color in this breed. In the purebred shows, I think the chestnut color is the most favored, followed by black, bay and the seal brown. But the dapple grey is my favorite. We don't participate in the shows---just trail ride whenever the chance arises. Actually...

    My favorite horse-not for contest

    A few pictures of green grass for old times sake

    We are sure hungry for greenery around here. Our normal rain for the year is a little over 20 inches...and we are about 10 inches short this year. It's very very tough on pasture,bushes,trees,etc to go into such cold weather with the soil dry down past the subsoil. Our chill factor was more...
