This isn’t an image I would ordinarily consider sharing on the blog. … But the quality of the light, matching the peace of the quietly grazing mustang mares is simply divine.
And that is infinitely worth sharing.

From American Wild Horse Campaign:
Since weβre expecting some sort of action on either Thursday or Friday of next week in Congress, we thought it might be a good idea to have a final, collective push to urge our supporters to contact their Congressperson as well as leadership.
We could call it Take Action Tuesday and have the push on Tuesday, March 20. The Call to Action would be:
1. Call the Leadership of the House and Senate. See numbers below. Simply deliver this message (or however your group would specifically like to word it):
Β “I’m calling to urge Senator/Representative _____ to keep horse slaughter out of 2018 spending legislation by maintaining the Senate versions of Agriculture and Interior Appropriations bills. Please stand with the 80% of Americans who oppose horse slaughter and want our wild horses and burros protected and humanely managed, not killed or slaughtered.”

That’s Piedra’s middle name – if she had one: Serene. π
Yesterday, some stuff as white as her coat fell on Disappointment Valley and the surrounding area. It melted quickly, but it WAS white, and it WAS wet.

Taking a walk for water with Round Top and Brumley Point in the background. The ponies do have some pretty nice scenery. π We all wish it was wetter.

Hollywood and Alegre watch horses in another band across the waving prairie of last year’s grasses in Spring Creek Basin. We did get some moisture … but the wind dried the land fast.

Juniper is still a shaggy girl … which is good because along with the few drops of rain we got yesterday came cooler temps. The mercury hit at least 71 degrees on Wednesday. Thursday, the temps didn’t break out of the 40s. We’d like more moisture, please. π

Even when looking elsewhere, Mysterium has the kindest eyes.
The wind is howling, and we’re hoping for rain by morning.

On a windy day, something in the distance caught Mariah’s attention. She certainly had mine.

Tenaz the Stout looks after his band on a rare cloudy day in Spring Creek Basin.
Where is our rain? Colorado’s “wettest month” … ain’t.

Do you love Terra’s little smile? π
And why wouldn’t she smile? She lives in a place close to heaven.
