Some pictures from yesterday

So, I did the whole zombie-Jesus-day celebration thing with my mom and brother yesterday; we went to a brunch buffet at a winery in Hopland, a cute little town which lies about an hour north of here. It was one of our more painless family holidays; go us! Afterward, Timothy and I visited Real Goods, which is this fantastic solar/alternative energy center and permaculture showcase. It is an endlessly fascinating place with wonderful ponds and gardens, and even has a solar-powered carousel. The figures are great, very well done wooden carvings. I love it.

And of course there is a baby horse who continues to be incredibly cute.





Silly.


The carousel! The salmon is my favorite.


I posed on the wild turkey, too.


The salmon and the feral pig!




An American Coot. These things look like they were designed by Edward Gorey.




Baby accepts petting! I still cannot get over the cute. Ye gods, as I review everything I need to do in the next year, but baby horses are a Lot Of Work. Resistance is still futile.







Little Arab head!!!!

Has he gotten up close and whuffled (I know it's not a real word but it is the best I can come up with for the sound horses make when they breath in your scent) your face yet? And if so isn't that a great feeling?

Yes, he has, and OMG yes, it's wonderful! :D
