So we have snow on the ground now, no bathing or serious grooming is going to happen for a while. Older photos coming up instead.

Spirit, Trakehner filly, sister of Steptanzer.
No grey or white horses here! All were spiffy in those pictures, not their usual 'pasture looks'.

Nice action on Steptanzer!

There is a book where they did this massively in-depth study on color, down to like hair thickness and density and hide depth of different colors and shaft transluscentness (sp?). It's wild. I'll try to find it.

I remember a book that said all horses are basically shades of brown. I don't remember the name of it now, though, it was long ago and far away. The Color of Horses, maybe? Lots of pics. And fascinating!

Well, we used to have two.

My Sliverly (aka "Silver" registered name " Neitherhere Northere") died on January 2, 2021 at 1 am. The vet took this photo of me saying good bye.

I had her since she was a baby. She was 26. She would have been 27 on April 15, 2021. She was a huge part of my life and I miss her.

Sorry about the downer news - but it is part of life. When you love, it can be hard sometimes.

We still have Robin. And it may do her and me some good to enter this contest! I try to spend as much time as possible with her and she is getting a little more belly from all the extra feed! Silver used to devour her portion and then run over and scnatch the rest of Robin's - before she stopped eating, that is. And Robin's feed buckets have been extra full as of late, to distract her a little. Robin will be 31 on May 5, 2021. Go Robin! We got her as a companion horse in 2000 when we brought Silver to our backyard.
