A Roundup For MacDuff :)
Defining words of horses. This was written on an observation of rounded up two-year old colts and fillies. At birth they are imprint trained, halter and lead broke. Then they are turned out to pasture to grow and thrive. At their two year birthday, they are rounded up and vaccinated, gelded as needed and saddle trained. Imprint training works wonders. After a few tense moments, they settle down and remember the imprint training. They handle very well and training them is a breeze. :-)

NORTHERN GODDESS
You can google Northumberlandia as she is called she can be seen from up high. I have walked up her and at the very top viewing point some open cast mining could still be seen on the other side. The contrast of what was, and what is just took my breath away.
