It was new and the name was written on the back. Because the summer can be so stifling hot and humid in Alabama. I enjoy having him visible as a reminder of cool and even cold blasts from the North. Believe it or not, that IS a color photo...the only colors visible are the gray bark and plaque. I caught a side angle of him with a bit of greenery in the background and have added it to my side bar.<br />I know what you mean; I feel like a five year old when I am spending time with my pets.FireLighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807248509319526615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526387584381191607.post-45597141333230386862009-04-19T07:54:00.000-05:002009-04-19T07:54:00.000-05:00Hello FireLight,

Lovely pictures though, especially the North Wind. How do you know that's who it is?<br /><br />And I really can't think what I wanted to be when I grew up! I didn't even know when I was 15!! I'm not sure I've found out yet!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00861397533660827678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526387584381191607.post-81087623463155270202009-04-19T01:57:00.000-05:002009-04-19T01:57:00.000-05:00What a good idea to paint the skeletal frame on th...What a good idea to paint the skeletal frame on the little mare, it's beautifully done and I shouldn't think that she minded. The Clydesdale is lovely, I've always loved the big working horses especially the Suffolk Punch. As for what I wanted to be - exactly what I am, from being a little girl I only ever wanted to be a housewife and mother.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526387584381191607.post-5119792017667069552009-04-18T22:55:00.000-05:002009-04-18T22:55:00.000-05:00I wanted to be Debbie Reynolds.
