As you can see, we did get snow in Oregon...not often, but wow was it ever beautiful. Billy's coat was like an Eskimos' and he never minded the cold, although I'm sure we must have blanketed them at night.
As you can tell in the second photo, Krista is on crutches. Here's what happened...coming back to the barn after brushing Billy in the pasture, Krista was sitting on Bill holding the brushes, while Eryn led him. They were near the creek bed and something moved, spooking Billy. As he darted to the side, she fell off and broke her femur, resulting in surgery, 3 long pins in her hip and another surgery a year later to remove them. A very sad tale indeed. But there you have it. He was not perfect afterall :-(

I'm loving it! Not quite to memory lane yet for me.......just give it about a decade...or two...:)
