No exertion here

Storm; Temple Butte and Brumley Point

Storm was napping in the cooler-than-usual summer sunshine, with his band grazing around him. I found a place to sit and watch (taking advantage of the spectacular background!), and every now and then, he’d come alert and look over, assure himself that all was well, then return to his nap.

Not too much bothers the big boy. 🙂





Summer solstice

Hayden; McKenna Peak

Sometimes, it’s impossible to convey the *feeling* behind the beauty of our world. Sure, photos can help me *try* to share that beauty, but a photo is only a square, limited view.

Wherever THERE is for you, get out there in the beauty, and if you can, share it with others.

Think about the variety of life on this planet. Nowhere else in the known universe has what Earth has. We are so blessed to enjoy the beauty of this big, blue ball.

And happy summer solstice. 🙂 Summer is here.





Blooms ‘n blues

Kwana with blooming prickly pear cacti.

Kwana’s baby blues aren’t on display in this image, but the cacti are blooming, and the grass is growing!





Return

19 06 2019

Hollywood; Temple Butte

Mr. Calm trots back to his band after a brief get-together with some young bachelors. Hollywood has reason to be calm; he’s in his prime, and actual challenges are few.





Mighty

Spirit

The pintos are small. And mighty. Mighty small. All mighty! 🙂





Meadow in the valley

Maia and Alegre; Brumley Point and Temple Butte

Sorry about the technical difficulties! I can’t believe it posted any part of this post earlier, but this is the “meadow” in the greater valley – a beautiful gathering place recently. 🙂





Happy Father’s Day!

To all the great dads – including my very awesome dad, Dave! – out there who protect and watch over us and support us and brag about our successes (and comfort our missteps): Thank you. 🙂

Happy Father’s Day!





Pretty, pretty pinto pony

Reya

The lovely Reya still was fuzzy a month ago. Sleek and shiny describes all the mustangs now in these days of early summer.





Object of affection

Terra and Aurora were very interested in another band.





Little dude, comin’ along

Maiku

Playing catchup seems to be a theme of late. There’s no time to waste when there’s green grass to be grazed!
