Just for Fun Friday – So, a Horse Walks into a Bar . . .

. . . and the bartender says “Why the long face?”

What do two horses in love do on the internet?  They E-Lope!

What did Mr. Ed say to the throat specialist?  I’m feeling a little hoarse!

How did the instructor try to make horse riding enjoyable?  She tried to stirrup some interest!

What happened to the man who owned a riding academy?  Business kept falling off!

 

OK, I’ll stop.  Have a great weekend!

Horse images – Around the Barn – Part 1

I hope to create more horse images this year.  I actually had a horse for a few years as a kid.  He was more of a pony, actually, (13.5 hands) – and his name was Frank.  If you can believe it, his full name was Frankenstein.  He was a very sweet pony and spending so much time with him made me very comfortable around horses.  I broke my arm when I fell off once, but my sister made me get back on and ride home – it was a good move – otherwise I think I would have held on to the initial fear of falling off.  (thanks, sis!)  I am one of those people who loves the smell of a barn.  Here are a few of my favorite images after getting up early to hang around a barn just for fun.

These images were created at the Northern Virginia Animal Swim Center.  It’s really cool to see the horses swimming in a pool.  I used to take my dog swimming there as well – they have a separate area for dogs.

If you’re trying to picture what a horse swimming pool looks like – here it is:

You can see the ramp on the far right – that’s how the horses get into the pool.  No diving boards here. :)
