Second Trim

Last week Bob had his second trim by his new shoer.  While we waited I brushed him out as best I could and goofed around taking various pictures.  
 
I took the usual picture of him standing tied at the hitching post.  He always seems to have the same look on his face.  What do you think?
 
Last week...
 
Last August...

Last October...

After the hitching post picture we did some close ups:

There is a softness to Bob's eyes that never used to be there.

Perhaps the result of the road we've traveled.
 
Do you kiss your horse???
 
I do!
 
The shoer removed the wedges on Bob's front feet and told me that he's coming along nicely.  If I can get the weather to coordinate with someone being here at home, we will go for a ride!

  1. The first 3 shots are like some sort of department store mannequin. Different outfits for different seasons.

    Hope you get to ride the soft-eyed boy soon!

  2. I am excited to hear that the wedges helped. It gives me hope that they will work for me (well my mare) as well.
    He does have that same look in each picture.

  3. Good luck with the weather, the possibility of a ride, and of course, I kiss my horse (but I am also always aware of that 2000lb. sledge hammer they carry on the end of their neck)!

  10. Not sure what is going on, but in my list I keep seeing that you have new posts, but when I go to read them, they aren't there. Now my curiosity is up and I can't wait to read the story.
