Wild Horses Couldn't Drag Me Away, but they might make me run

July 7-10, 2013

Rock Springs, WY


Of all the surprises I've found out west, this is one of the best. The locals are really friendly, but one neighbor of Melinda and Jamie's went over and above nice.  I don't want to give away any secrets, so I'll just say that he was the guy to know if you wanted to find herds of wild horses.  Yes, the mustangs just like in the old westerns, running wild and free on the open range.  So, one evening, we took a long drive with him and Melinda. 

Somewhere in SW Wyoming...wait, not horses.

OH, here they are!







So nice of them to pose for us.

 
 

 

 
 
 




 

 

awww!
 



Sometimes there are little disagreements.

Marvelous Melinda.  You should see the pictures
she can get with that camera.  In fact,
here are a few of them:
 
 
 
Beautiful and violent.  Hate to love it.
 
O.K., back to my shots:
Everyone is much calmer today.

Wild horses make Anna dance.
 
 
She actually does have on shorts.

..."where the deer and the antelope play..."


Hey, where'd everybody go?

 
Post Script:  Ironically as I wrote this post, Melinda sent me some recent photos she took in the snow.  Enjoy!
