Horses

There is no secret so close as that between a rider and his horse.  ~Robert Smith 
12 year old Appaloosa, DS Whoa That Impulse(Skippy), takes a break this winter from his show horse career and enjoys time out in the pasture with his buddy, Smokey the pony.
Herbie, normally a quiet show horse, gets to experience some practice roping, as his owner Bailey Savannah prepares for the Oregon High School Equestrian Teams first competition in February.

WBW Color Me Cute(Herbie), 6 year old Paint Horse, waits patiently as his owner and rider, Bailey Savannah, 15, tries to recoil her rope.
In riding a horse we borrow freedom.  ~Helen Thomson
