land of mini's

there are lots of animals at rein water ranch.

miniature horses are no exception.

meet jewel...

she is a pretty black and white filly just a few years old.

then there is willie...

he is the oldest but is too modest to tell you his real age.

and finally there is sparky.

he was previously owned by an electrician...they think he is in his teens.

there are other mini's but these are the ones that "sparked" our attention.

abbey was able to ride jewel bareback.

but it's willie who has a special talent.

he had to be primped for it.

the girls were trying to get him looking just right.

willie might have felt silly...but he was feeling loved all the same.

next came hitching him up to the cart.

then with harness in place...abbey was able to drive willie.

life on the ranch is...busy...fun...full of wonderful adventures.

thanks jean and esther.
