Horses, horses

My favorite thing to happen is to see horses up in the mountains.

This herd showed up in the middle of our fall picnic and hike, earlier in November.

I never get close, but I love to watch them anyway.  Taking pictures quickly against the sun was a challenge.

Running away...

Eppu was my hiking buddy. I had to hurry up to keep up with him. And if I wanted to take a picture, I was panicking that he'd just roll off the mountain, so he had to sit down and wait. Hence not so many pictures! 

The view towards our picnic place.  It's so fun when the kids get bigger and you get to actually do stuff with them!
