A Foggy Morning

I woke up this morning to some serious fog! Luckily it is clearing off and getting pretty so I'm happy. I LOVE fog pictures so I took advantage of it this morning and got some good ones of the horses. Let me know what you think!

Chrome and Zep found the salt and trace mineral blocks my dad had out for the deer. :D

This one needs a caption!!

I love when they all pose together. :D Chrome was so alert because he was hearing something in the fog so he was all puffed up. Look how tall he looks!

He looks sooooo tall in this picture because Faran is a little downhill and walking off.

I never did figure out what he was looking at, probably because I was so distracted by how friggin cute he is!!!!

P.S. I'll be doing a post tomorrow answering some of your questions, so if you have any please comment so I can add them to the post. :D

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question! Did you get to bring your ducks and turkey(s) too? I bet everyone is happy to be settling in. Do you have a good space to work with Zep now?

Name: Led Zeppelin
Nicknames: Zep
Sire: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Dam: Unknown (Standard Donkey)
Breed: Standard Donkey
DOB: 2007
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
Color: Gray (what do you call the donkey color??)

Date Aquired: My dad rescued/bought him shortly before I brought Chrome home, but he gave him to us on 1-18-10.

Likes: Treats, forehead scratches, his buddies and braying early in the morning.
Dislikes: Being handled at all (his first three years were spent in someone's backyard never being touched), sudden movements and sometimes his bratty pasture mate Chrome. :D

I'm in my thirties, live in the USA and I love horses (obviously). I've been obsessed with Friesians (that's Chrome's purebred Friesian sire in the above picture) for over ten years. I started riding horses when I was five and always had horses from then until 2007 when I found myself without one. I wanted a Friesian, but the budget wouldn't allow for it so I started looking at crosses. I found Chrome (Friesian/Arabian) and I haven't regretted it for a second. I bought him as a five month old weanling in 2009 and I've done all of his training myself. The blog is about our continued journey together as I attempt to make him my dream all around horse who can do anything from dressage, competitive trail riding, driving, mounted archery, working equitation and anything else we want to try. He's still very green and we obviously have a long way to go, but you're welcome to follow along on our journey. I also love dogs, art, photography, writing, reading, fishing, biking, camping, archery and many other things. You can learn more about me on my About Me page, my Equestrian Bucket List page and my FAQ page.
