Stone horse fence in the snow



We live in horse country--serious horse country. Not rodeo, cowboy kind of horse country. No, no. This is Equestrian country. In fact, our city is known as "Horse Capital of the World." THE WORLD! Anyway . . .

These kinds of "horse fences" are littered throughout the area. Some people have built newer ones to resemble the ones from long ago, and some of them are the real deal--ruins from a different era. This is a newer one that stands outside our home, and it actually acts as a retaining wall. It was really pretty with the new snowfall on it, so I had to stop and snap this image. One of these days, I'm going to take a short, slow drive through some of the nearby country roads to capture the real ones.
