Don't Tell Me You're Not Tired of This Yet...

If you're tired of reading about Whit and the horses, or seeing pictures of them too, then just flip to another page now.  I don't know if that's really the most interesting thing that went on here in October since I last posted, but that's what I have pictures of.  Whit and the horses.  I'll look some more and see what else I might have photo-documented.

Anyway, last weekend Whit and friend Jake had a job doing some low-impact, selective clearing of a few trees on a piece of property down near the pond.  They chose to do the job on a very rainy Saturday...as opposed to sunny Sunday afternoon.  I don't remember what else was going on that weekend, but it made sense to them to do it in the rain.  It was cold and windy too.  It was not my idea of a good time, but I took them some lunch and brought my camera.  I stood under the porch to take the following pictures.  TBear stayed and helped.


 You can sort of see the pond in the background behind the trees.  It really was a good job for the horses.

 
The scenery was beautiful, even if the weather wasn't.  The gold of the autumn leaves gave the whole woods an apparently cheerful, if wet, golden glow.

 

Reality check: 1-2 inches of rain that day.   (Yeah, I'd have picked that day to work too.  Not. :)
 
I'm sure it's a guy thing.  Even the horses didn't look that miserable.  They all came home still happy.  (And happy to be done.)
