Wild Horses

I know today is election day and this post should probably be some deeply philosophical statement about the importance of voting. I know we have just spent ten days with grandchildren and you should be and will be getting pictures of adorable little people playing soccer, winning awards and posing patiently with their grandparents. However, today I am offering you a very gentle, peaceful scene which I had never seen before: Wild horses in the wild.

We were driving across 120 and there they were. Dean had to slow down for them to cross the road although they turned and ran for a short distance. Beautiful. Then they stopped to graze again and so we stopped to take pictures. The car behind us stopped to take their own pictures and to stay out of the way of our pictures. We all smiled and waved at each other when the pictures were done. 

As I looked behind us as we drove away, the horses were starting back across the road. It was a lovely moment in time so here they are.
