Shane

Shane-a-little-Shane-Shane.

That’s her nickname. I know, nicknames are supposed to be shorter, but you can’t get much shorter than Shane, so hers must be memorable. 🙂 (And she’s really not very little; she’s a robust big girl!)

Puzzle

Another image from smoky days not far distant. Puzzle also is worth any posting on this blog dedicated to the marvelous mustangs of Spring Creek Basin. 🙂

McKenna Peak and Temple Butte under stormy sky.

A little of those (dark clouds) led to a little bit of the wet stuff yesterday afternoon.

We love wet stuff. 🙂

Oh, how we love him.

Gaia; McKenna Peak at far right, Temple Butte just left of back center.

This photo of Gaia was taken a couple of smoky weeks ago, but the beautiful girl is always worth sharing. 🙂 Our skies are much clearer now after a bit of rain, but we seem to still be as dry as ever. A few long, drizzly showers would do our ranges a world of good as we slide toward fall.





Braids gone wild

Juniper

Juniper had her hair done by her girlfriends … then there was a little hiking and a bit of summer breezes and some mud baths. Her braids are looking a bit weatherworn … but she’s still beautiful. 🙂

Kestrel and Comanche

Get back home, you!

Kestrel wasn’t reallllllly wandering … but during her peaceful grazing, she wandered too close to another band. And Comanche – apparently – did not like that one little bitty bit. 🙂

Hard to blame him; he and Mistress Kestrel have been together for a very long time. They’re basin royalty.

Hollywood and Alegre

Handsome Hollywood keeps watch while his band grazes (Alegre in the background).
