Dr. Bob and the Buggy.

"We thought that you might be interested
in the latest adventure.
Sunday afternoon Catherine and Bob hooked
Dreamer up to the buggy.

Dreamer had watched the horses and mules at the National
Chuck Wagon Mule and Horse Races in Clinton, Arkansas pull
wagons and buggies and she seemed excited about trying it
herself.

She was very patient while we put the harness
on her and adjusted it to fit properly.

We walked her around twice and Bob got in and drove
away. She took to it immediately, found her 'sweet
speed' gait where the harness and buggy move with a smooth,
easy rhythm, and trotted off for miles of practice. We
rode in the buggy most of the afternoon.


When we finally stripped off the harness Dreamer was so proud of herself that she pranced around and nickered the rest of the afternoon."

Love, Bob & Catherine

Could you deliver butter, eggs, and some cream on Saturday?

Very interesting and entertaining item. But I want to comment on the photography.

Every shot was framed beautifully, with no distracting, unnatural artifacts in the background. That must have taken some intentional planning, and the results were great. Good Job!
