Always In Love

Once in love
with horses
always in love
with horses.
...Stacy Posthumus

I have loved horses all my life. It was probably the first animal I fell in love with and it was love at first sight. I rode for the first time at three years old and the trial leader was most impressed. My uncle, who lived in Texas, would borrow a horse for me when I would visit him on his cattle ranch in the summer. They are such beautiful and majestic animals.

Nice on black.
A beautiful capture. Looks great on black.

Nice look for a friendly horse! I loved the idea of riding but for some reason, horses like to buck me off!

@365karly1 @365karly1 I wish they were mine but alas, no. I did own two thoroughbreds (one at a time) but pretty much gave up horses around 24 years old. A horse is very expensive to board, feed, vet, farrier, lessons, horse shows, etc. I finally had to get a job and had less time to ride so I sold my horse. :(

@365karly1 It would be fun to have a miniature horse running around my backyard though! :)
