So here I am, in a hotel room in Cody Wyoming rainy and cold. Caught a lot of great horse photos yesterday, windy, a bit cold but beautiful day. Got some nice new babies and some great yearlings. Amazingly most of the babies seem to be little stud colts. It was a great day full of studly action, sparing at every turn, very serious. Broke all the rules, got very very close with the stallions. Truly a day of becoming one with the horses. Spent several hours just sitting in the open fields with them. Great cooperation with each band.
Yellowstone on the other hand was a total bust. Rains of late have caused mudslides in the park and some serious avalanches. East gate out of Cody completely locked up. 7-9 inches of snow predicted for tonight at elevations of 7,000 feet or better. Pure bust, no bears although I did get a few big horns sparing today while driving the road from Cody to the gate.
Heading home tomorrow, truck not in good shape. Long 24 hour ride home, but here we go. Until I get home and process, see you in a few.

We really enjoyed ourselves, sorry my photography can’t express how beautiful it really is there

Heading to Wyoming for another spring horse experience. Full moon on the 17th, bet some babies hit the ground. Too quick for me to get out of here so I guess I wil settle for the 1 week old foals.. Spring mating season as well, should make for an interesting trip. May 26th to May 30th.

Well sitting on the last day, last night was a luau and it was very interesting. Learned a lot about the culture and the people who make up Hawaiian society. Hope you enjoy a couple of pics.

Well a month has passed since Brody (my beloved dog) and I have returned from the Dove Creek area in western Colorado. It was an amazing trip as always. I seem to find my greatest self peace when I spend time camping with the wild horses. Spotting Eagles seems to be a sign to me that I am doing all the right things and that I will have a safe and fulfilling trip. On the road into Disappointment Valley, I was greeted by two Bald Eagles that gave me plenty of time for quality photographs. The ultimate sign.

I found the horses quickly but in a different area this year. I recognized most from the previous year and the site of the yearlings that i watched as newborns last year brought a very warm a special feeling deep deep in my soul. We were always greeted with curiosity and in style we left each band without disturbance. Brody really has the hang of this game, he sits with me in a field for hours waiting on bands to come within the reach of our lens. It’s like he understands and enjoys the peace as well.

We have many beautiful pictures and several exciting and heart warming stories about our time spent with these great animals. I hope you enjoy some of the photos we have displayed, for sure not all that we have. If you are interested in comparison of year over year please contact me and I will send you some examples.

Our next Wild Horse Adventure will be back to Wyoming. I just can’t seem to wait.

May God bless and have mercy on the last of our natural heritage, the Wild Horses.
