Storm

6 11 2011

Storm wasn’t too far from Poco and Roach. I’m never sure how aware they are of other horses, close but unseen, or if the same obstacles – landforms – in my way stymie them as well. How big a role plays their superior eyesight, smell, hearing – being?

He was alone and napping, looking as robust as ever – clearly no physically worse for wear since his parting from Shadow (at the, err, hooves of David).

Can’t get over how much he grew this summer.

He stood for a while, watching me across a little arroyo, then apparently got bored! …

… and moved on to grazing. Do you love how he matches his surroundings?! Late-fall basin grey with snow patches – is that a new horse color we can register?

He kept an eye on me. 🙂

Handsome

He has moved a bit out of what had become his territory this summer – not surprising. Maybe he’ll take up with Poco and Roach … or not.

He looks like granite. Is that what the stone is there?

Lots of different type of stone, but not granite – lots of shaley-type rock. I wish I had more knowledge of the geology … and biology and botany and etc.!

Handsome for sure!
