Little Horses, Big Snow

Blue has plenty of thick fur and plenty of fat. He's not at all intimidated by cold and snow:

Are you talking about me?

Remy is even more adventurous than Blue, and is most always the ring leader when there is fun and mischief:

The two of them love to romp in the snow. You can see where they've been by the trails they've left in their wake:

They chase each other, sometimes so fast that their tails stream out behind them, sometimes wrestling as they run, with the horse in front trying to kick the one behind him:

Sometimes they just root for grass beneath the snow:

They're a happy duo, and there are no flies this time of year to pester them:

If there is some wasted hay on the ground, they think it's a treat just for them:

And when they're done playing, they come inside the barn for rest and even more hay:

Remy comes running to the barn when he sees me filling the stock tank with water. He doesn't want the water, he wants to grab the fish net (which I use to clean the bits of hay out of the tank) and run away with it, hoping I'll chase him:

It doesn't take long for them to fill the barn with manure, but they are happy boys right after I clean the barn floor and put down new bedding hay:

Blue is not so shy as he used to be, but he still likes to poke his head out through the door and watch from what he considers a safe hiding place:
