In case you didn’t know horses are food-driven animals…
Since I don’t have many pictures of Ro, I thought I would take some while she was out grazing this evening.
A good idea in theory, but as soon as she saw me coming, Ro lead the retreat:
Having retreated as far as they could, they paused to reconsider. That’s the Lady Who Sometimes Brings Treats, and she’s not carrying a halter. Maybe our retreat was a bit hasty…
Ro came close enough to find out if I did, in fact, have treats:
Reminded me that there was grass she could be eating, and time was wasting…
And then, when no treats were forthcoming, wandered away again.
I guess that puts me in my place.

Ah yes, as I have recently found out, the stomach trumps all, even for Mr. Nascar. I’m not surprised Ro is searching for the Starbucks bag.
