It's always fun to watch the pasture horses enjoy their favorite day of the year. 🐎 Best of luck to the owners trying to catch them. 🙂

What a perfectly beautiful day in the pasture.

Because when you're retired, it's totally acceptable to take a nap in the sun with your foot in a feed pan. Oh the life of Jerry. We're thankful for the antics of our treasured military caisson horse.

Happy Veterans Day 🇺🇸 to our resident Veteran Jerry the Caisson horse. USArmy Caisson Platoon, 19 years of meaningful duty escorting American heroes to their final resting place in Arlington National Cemetery. Retired May 2022 to a remaining long life of relaxation, long hair, dirt and a bit more time to goof off and play. We hope he thinks every day is Veterans Day in our barn. 💕🇺🇸
