Windhorse Farm

Reality is what you think it is.

My friend Curt and his wife Jean raise quarterhorses on 

Windhorse Farm.  Curt is also a practicing Buddhist who allows me to come and meditate with him in his yurt on Wednesday mornings.
We talk and meditate and talk some more.  He is my "uncle"
who helps me learn, a warm and gentle person.  Brenda comes to meditate too, we have a small class.

On Wednesday morning we had blissfully blue sky.  Last week there were three mares ready to foal  in the barn.   On the way out to the yurt I couldn't help but sneak a peak.  It was so exciting to see the new colt, born the night before.

After our session I got out my camera and started snapping shots of the place.

It's a local sign of spring when cows and sheep and horses have babies!

Farms usually include interesting old buildings and odd pieces of equipment.

The mare was protective of her colt and didn't really appreciate the by-standers admiring her baby so it was a bit challenging to get decent shots of them moving around.  At least the light was good.

She is beautiful!

The little guy was wobbly but managed pretty well for being so new and having such long legs.  He will grow up to be quite handsome.

Maybe next week there will be another new birth in the neighborhood.
