Sunday Stills ~ You

Sunday Still #29 ~You


I'm going to go with my own interpretation of this.

1979 Myself and Eddie 
my oldest son


The photo below explains what 
I wanted to be when I grew up.

at 16 yrs old


Our wedding with my 
two boys and his daughter


Morris and I watching the woods.

This is me. 


And hopefully, this is me for a long time....

Great series, tells the story of you! Bareback & barefoot, typical carefree kid. Pony appears to have the classic pony-tude, did it? Even the horse seems to be wondering about the wild pony h/air.

You have mastered self remote shooting. I was going to shoot me via my phone app, but talk about wild air. The wind was super crazy yesterday, so I went with my back-up selfies.

Love them! The little badass cowgirl is too cute :)
Love that you got married a-muleback; Ted and I got married on horseback.

Love the skunk hat! Nice to see all the you photos! That photo of you and Charlie and the bear in the sled is a classic:)

Where do you get those hats? How many do you have? You look like a trapper... hehe.

Skunk hat came from Wildthing Furs in Rockton WI. They have an online store also. I am never cold in the winter.

Yes, remote shooting is pretty fun. Delayed shooting is easiest for me.
Thunder, the pony had typical attitude and he ended up being my choice most of the time. Twin string for reins and a piece of garden hose to tap his butt with....
We used to play ride 'n go seek in the woods with him. Oh the things we kids did!

His mane was clipped every spring. My mules have that wild mane look right now!

Thanks! Rich's old pony mule was there as the Mule of Honor! Hats have always been my thing. I love them.

That photo is my favorite from last winter. I'm looking forward to more adventures this year.
