Aaah! Kimmy! I knew I loved you! xD

I wanted to watch the weight pulling competition so bad. Those horses are absolutely amazing. We went the year before last and once before that. The raw power... I had the pleasure of seeing a competition at the local 4-H fair that I participated in, as well. There was this absolutely to die for pair of Black Percherons and then this gorgeous set of Belgians that I routed for. I found myself pulling just a little more for the Belgians as they were such an odd team. One of them was a good deal bigger than the other and at least three shades darker, but they pulled as a team and the little guy never slacked off.

I lived in Kentucky for four years and my neighbors bred the Draft Mules so they always had a bunch of Belgian and a couple of Percheron mares. I'd always found the drafts to be fascinating for their size alone, but spending time with them made me appreciate their gentle nature and hard working spirit, as well.

Thank you so much for sharing these. Looks like you had a blast! And that Tommie is just darling.
