    Draft Horses!!!

    I spent many an hour watching the various Draft Horse events at the Canfield Fair!

    It always amazed me how the Pulling teams would stand SO quietly in line
    just*watching* all the other teams hitch to the sled and take off ...
    the *waiters* seemed like many of them were sleeping on their feet.
    UNTIL their crew flicked the reins and it was THEIR turn to pull ...
    Like turning on a switch - they'd 'light up' and almost jump out of their skins
    getting lined up on the pulling sled ... no need to tell 'em to "pull" -
    as soon as their tree *clanked* onto the sled - LOOK OUT!
    After the whistle, they'd *prance* back to their place in the lineup and
    settl in for anothe lil nap. AMAZING creatures!

    Will Kia and Chipper *share* their apartment with Tommie?

    She's 8 months old.

    Phred, Kia and Chipper may not have a choice! LOL! Though I'm not sure how you'd housebreak a horse.

    It's nice to see some beautiful Belgians. We had a team at the farm I used to work at.

    That's what my parents said.

    Andy said we could just let Kia take care of it.

    Oh wow, I am amazed at their sizes! I have never met one in person, and I can just imagine how stunning they are in real life. The pictures alone have me in awe.

    I adore Tommie, she seems like such a lovable goof! The picture of her trying to steal a drink is just too cute.

    Thanks for sharing this event with us!
