Oliver

This youngish roan draft cross belongs to a friend of mine.  I’ve been riding him in the middle of the week since she can only get out on weekends.  He is a darling, and unique in my experience that he doesn’t automatically put his ears back when he hears the shutter click.

Water Drops

On Friday, there was a lightning strike not too far from us, near the Air Force Academy.  Here is a helicopter which made some water drops on Saturday near the tree that was burning. (You may have to click on the photo to see the helicopter.)
