Baby it's cold outside!

So it looks like the arctic air mass is descending on all of us, although it isn't s cold here as it is on the prairies, it still is as cold as it was on the coldest day last winter- a month earlier though. I turn the horses out in the afternoon, and they all had an opinion when I went to bring them in. Lets start with Beamer:

Oh there you are! Finally! I have been waiting so long here by the gate that my toes is froze!

Waaaah! I want my nice snug stall with its deep straw!

The other two horses were also waiting by the gate but I ignored them for a bit- because of course, I couldn't waste a good photo op with the way the light was and the mysterious look of the mountains.

I was using my little camera as the big one was getting its battery charged. One of the neat things I can do with this one is point the camera at something to get a different light reading and then move the camera to a different subject for the picture and hold that light reading, which is what I did in this next one:

Meanwhile, Josie was not amused....

and Rio was being very helpful in true Rio fashion:

Here's Josie's halter, she wants it on really she does!!!!

And here's mine! C'n we go in now can we huh? I really wanna bury my head in my hay pile!

What a pathetic crew!
