A visit and a foggy morning

Nitro got to meet one of his new owners yesterday. Veronica came over to see him, and had a good visit.

You can see in this photo that he is in a growth spurt (please ignore the muddy legs!)
We looked at  all the horses and when the mares discovered that Veronica came bearing gifts (apples, carrots) she got mobbed. Gussie of course, was front and center. Big pest!
This morning was a little foggy- for me, that means photo op! There is a short window for photos because the sun quickly  scatters the fog.

Whatcha doin'? Is it edible?
No Chickory, it isn't edible. Now move so I can get another photo.

It didn't take long before the sun turned everything to gold- including the boys when I turned them out.
Rio's colour always amazes me, he can look completely different, depending on the light.

Shirley, in my opinion, that bale pic needs to get entered into the calendar contest for 2013! As for the spiders, I kinda laughed at all the people who said "ewww" to spiders! Ok, I do have to admit that when I feel one crawl down my shirt I get a bit freaked out :)
