I'll bet Sergeant Preston put a spell on you.



Kind of looks like Greg in a mounties costume already for Halloween.

Pictured is Madelaine, my Morgan mare, on her first ride ouside of the security of the round corral, used for early training of horses.

A local musician, Gene Brown, plays the tune,
"Breaking Wild Horses'.

Compared to the glass and asphalt here, the greenery is definitely nice.

I lived in Washington State for a while and really enjoyed it. (Ok, yes it was one of the few places where it could simultaineously rain and have sunshine, but still the atmosphere was fresh and it's definitely beats rush hour on the 405 freeway )

From Dawson City, Yukon,
the dance hall girls of Diamond Tooth Gerties perform the cancan.

Some legs and lace for the gentlemen of the forum.

November 2nd, 5:00 p.m. in Yukon, and the horses have been fed and watered. Snowcover is 3-4 inches.

I saw that full moon, too, Label, and also its setting in the morning, which was quite a melancholy sight.
