They're about 4, hours from me. Pretty reasonable IMO.

reedhill, you got me smiling. It is true that 4 hours shouldn't seem a big deal after, you know, 14. ;) Till my next trip down to KY, I'll just keep ogling the horses on your site. That'll be fun! :shock: :D

Sounds very promising, YEAH!

Well maybe then you can help tell me what color my babies are, now they are changing colors on me!!!!!!!!! Seriously...... the Silhouette overo filly that was born with black and silver hair.........well it's GONE!!!!!! She put on a new outfit and she is now wearing at darkest areas (medium brown and the rest is a light tan) sooooo, I think she now wants to be a buckskin overo!!!!! This may change her sale status :?: :shock: :lol:

SOF....if you ever want to shoot the "Horses of Texas" give me a holler....I have an extra room....my horses are not quite as colorful as the ones you've taken....but you can "practice" on them if you'd like :wink:

We have tons of paints within an hour or 2 of me....TONS...and then we have the roans of Weatherford that are about 20 miles to my west..Peptoboonsmal legacies..we also have some cloned ones too...Lone Star Park is a Classy Race Track....and of course the Paint Show is here about this time each year and oh yeah..the Fat Stock Show is at the end of January....lots of color there...

You are always welcome to come here again. We have quite the selection, as always :)

Oh so many more neat horses and some you can see under saddle as well, though the tack can hide the markings... Or lets free jump some! This time of year is much nicer than the snow and winter. Though I must admit, the pictures you took in the snow were amazing as you said they would be :)

Gee, BlazingColours, was it winter when I visited?! :shock: :shock: :wink: Holy smokes, I can't remember when I was colder. You were such a good sport! I'd LOVE to pester you at a pretty time of year....

reedhill, that's one of the great things about these colorful horses, isn't it? I can't even recognize yearlings that I photographed as foals. I showed my editor photos that I took of a grey foal (who was bright chestnut with blaze and stockings) and that same horse as a near-white/grey yearling. He said, "What happened to him? Was it a disease?!" ;)

And HeadlessHorseman, I have no doubt I could keep busy in Texas, with all the great horses there - and practicing photographing horses is one of my favorite things to do! If I ever head your way, I'll definitely send a note beforehand.
