Boys on the go

These boys were moving across Wildcat Valley the other night while I was visiting Comanche’s and Hollywood’s bands.

Seven, Bounce, Kreacher, Aspen, Apollo, Tenaz and Hayden at sunset.





Gal pals

Madison and Temple made a play date a week or so ago at the northwest pond.

Madi (bay) is the daughter of Comanche and Kestrel. Temple (dark girl turning grey) is the daughter of Hollywood and Piedra.

This was taken at the northwest pond. Madi is so mellow, like her mama and sisters. Temple is very watchful, like mama Piedra.

The families were close by (as usual), and Duke was nearby, as were Bounce, Seven, Kreacher, Hayden, Tenaz and Apollo.





Inspired

A couple of weeks ago, I had a magical evening in Spring Creek Basin with the horses, particularly Grey’s band, then Sundance’s band up on a hill in the north, above Wildcat Valley. It was one of those evenings that stands out in years of magical evenings. A storm was breaking up to the west, at sunset, and the beams of sunlight streaming through the clouds was simply glorious.

Sundance, kissed by light.

Looking out on the basin over Skywalker’s back. When I said they were up on the north hills, they were UP.

I thought I had taken pix out across the basin, but I have just this one …

Looking down at Grey’s band.

What’s not to love?

Be the light you wish to see in the world.

How are YOU inspired?





Always golden

He still makes my heart melt.

Always gorgeous!

Our handsome Grey/Traveler continues to hold the largest band in the basin. Is it any wonder?





A peek at peace

Sweet baby Madison peeks over sister Juniper’s back while grazing with mama Kestrel at sunset.

Mama Kestrel and daddy Comanche sharing some “us time” at sunset. Prominent Spring Creek Basin landmarks the unnamed promontory and McKenna Peak in the background.

What they know about peace in the world could change the world.





Yet another atypical stallion photo

I love seeing these moments. 🙂

Comanche and Hollywood grazing peacefully with their families nearby.

That’s the foreground story.

Note the background story.

Kreacher and Hayden sparring. They were with Seven, Bounce, Tenaz and Apollo.

Youngster testing his strength.

Very end of day.

Mama Alegre and baby Maia. Peaceful evening under clouds. Can you see that Maia already is turning grey?





Under the budding juniper tree

Every kid needs a special tree.

S’aka was enjoying a nap the other morning. Uncle Maiku was napping on the other side of the tree. How cool is that tree?





Keep guessing

Chipeta seems to be laughing at our – OK, my – attempt to predict her foaling date. Mwahaha!

All right, all right. It’s not THAT funny! I’m watching you, girl. 🙂





Dream land

And we get to visit it wide awake. 🙂
