hey Stacey.  what is your horse's name?  Hmmm… another photoshop effect i'm guessing.  I gotta get that program.  Watercolor effect?   Beautiful horse.  Horses are such amazing spirits.  I had an experience once on a canoe trip of coming round a bend on a misty morning and encountering 5 wild horses standing close together.  I motioned to my partner to be silent and hold the canoe there and I entered the water.  Over the next 45 mins or so I made my way into the group of horses and as I approached it was as if I became one of them. It was an incredible experience of mutual innocense.   Later we inquired at a ranger station and were told that a large chunk of the land in this wilderness area had been gifted by a rancher who had let his horses go when he turned over the land.  That had been decades ago.   There were now a number of  herds that the were aware of and would get reports of.   The only other time I had seen wild horses was in New Mexico in a remote area where I actually saw the classic image of horses up on a mesa edge during sunrise.   Have you been around horses all your life?
