Memorial Day Horses

Memorial Day has always been a day of remembrance for me, rather than a holiday for BBQ's and an afternoon on the lake. I generally work or catch up on writing and reading. After a nice long walk this morning, I decided to explore a little part of Whitefish I hadn't been to before. A nice surprise in the form of some friendly horses greeted me on the north shore of Whitefish Lake.

This red beauty was a little camera crazy and not too keen on letting the others to the fence, but they eventually won out.

This pretty little white sweetheart wanted her picture taken, but ahem, Mr. Red up there was blocking her path, so I went around him.

Then I went across the road to the lake side where another group of horses were waiting for their photo op. It didn't take them long to abandon their meal for a visit at the fence.

A couple of these pretties are going to make it into one of my westerns. Whatever you're out doing today, I hope it's fun, safe, and most importantly, in honor of our soldiers.
