Seaside Horses

Thank you for all of your support during the HubPages contest! Even though my article didn't win, it was chosen for Hub of the Day this past Sunday. I had a lot of fun participating and hearing from new readers. Without readers, what's the point of writing? I appreciate all of my readers here and always love to read your comments - thank you :)

My photos have been stacking up, and I was going to stuff them into one post, but changed my mind. I'm feeling a little wordless anyhow, so I'll just let the photos speak for themselves. 

I met a few new friends recently. They live in a large hillside pasture overlooking a 180 degree view of the sea.  



These beautiful horses of Hawaii are reddish from the dirt, and they love to eat the buffalo grass that grows on the other side of the fence.



I was very excited to see the new foals with their spindly legs and fuzzy coats.




Like most little girls, I was once obsessed with horses. Marguerite Henry books filled my shelves, and I had a complete stable of miniature horses that I regularly exercised on the carpeted track. I think a bit of that horse-love is still hidden somewhere inside me, because something makes me want to hug every horse I see.

  2. LOVE your blog! I just moved to the island 2 weeks ago, and started a blog of my own. I love reading yours, I am dreading running into one of those cane spiders! lol I stumbled across your blog on google when i was looking up some info about the island. I've found your blog to be quite informative, and sooo true! Keep up the great blogging!
