Nautical history, a walk AND a swim-with a great osprey thrown in? Nice day, Denise.
I've tried the ospreys a number of times (I just love watching them) and don't have anything as good as your photo to show for it. Just sayin'
Most horses won't mate when they are nursing. Add in an 11+ month gestation and the ponies have to get back to the wild to continue the cycle. Next year's foals are already being carried, but I imagine there will be a few that are 'late summer cycle'. They will be too young to auction next year.
I'd imagine the Salt Water Cowboys are just like the dust bunny cowboys I know. There'll be a beer or two cracked at the end of a round up. Just a guess :)
Motorcyclists generally wave at one another. Standard is the two finger V. For me it's an acknowledgement that everybody else on the road is capable of killing us and we need to stick together-at least a little bit. Some say the V is for V Twin (think Harley here) but I believe it signifies two wheels. For the record, most riders, real riders stop for every single stranded motorcycle. Every one.
Thanks for a great walk Denise!
