a day at the farm (and a bit by the side of the road!)

I had a wonderful weekend (of course) which started with a performance of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony and ended with a trip to the farm to visit my dear friend KB and her family. Most of the photos below are from the farm, but the llama the chestnut mare live on Deer Park Road: I saw them all while driving home from breakfast with my parents on Sunday morning and put my rubber boots on to go traipsing into the ditch. There were a lot of enormous spiders busily spinning and weaving in the tall grasses, and my camera is just good enough to catch the action without blurring. 
Horses in general are a stubborn subject and they tend to show nothing but rumpus as soon as the camera comes up, but my persistence paid off. I pretty much stalked them until I got what I wanted. 
I hope you enjoy the pictures!
