A horse of a different color ~

This week I've been posting photos of the beautiful horses at Fable Arabians.

Here's a different sort of horse altogether - one made from car parts (see that VW hub cap?). This sculpture is "Heart and Steel" by George Manus. The horse is displayed outside of the Medicine Man Gallery.

P.S. Don't miss your chance at winning a $50 gift certificate. The drawing is tomorrow, Friday, Oct 1. You must be a site follower to be eligible. See earlier posts this week for details. Thanks & good luck!

A trough for serious thirst quenching ~

Here's yesterday's pair after breakfast. I think it's a mare & her colt ~ they stayed very close together during the time I was there.

Putting on the feedbag ~

Tucson is home to many world-class horse facilities. Fable Arabians is just one of the horse farms that make this area famous. Here's a pair enjoying breakfast. The beautiful Catalina mountains are the backdrop.

What would your book be?

Seeing this license plate in traffic got me to thinking about what "The Book" means to this driver. The Bible? The Book of Life? The Book of Law (throw the book at him)? If you could just take ONE book with you on a long voyage, what would it be?
