    We went to the barn today April 1st. The weather was more like December 1st, 5 or so inches of snow over the last 36 hours, 26 degrees high to day. Mimi turned Gwen loose in the ring so she could do what ever she wanted. Rolling was the 1st., 2nd. and 3rd. thing, then off and running. While Mimi groomed Gwen and Dahlia, I wandered about outdoors, and took some pictures of what ever. I also got a few shots of Dahlia as Mimi led her to her stall.

    There's just nothing like a good roll when your a horse. :-D
    Hi there Mimi - lovely to 'meet' you. You and Tom must be wondering if winter is ever going to leave and allow spring to show its face.
    Great photographs once again Tom.

    Great photos Tom. I especially like the first two in the snow. Hello Mimi... you really do a wonderful job with the horses. They are all beautiful animals.

    Rolling to a horse must be something like getting a really good back rub. Thanks for the comments, I love taking the pictures, especially when the subject matter is so delightful.

    Lovely horses. I especially love the snow pics. Mimi sure is a funny horse! I love your narrative of her behavior.
