beach horses

I am back from vacation... struggling to get back into the non-beach routine. No long walks looking for shells and beach glass... no napping listening to the sound of waves crashing... *sigh*

I have a gazilion pictures... not uploaded yet... but here is one I pulled out. Just as I expected there were oodles of chubby beach horses wandering around the Outer Banks. One morning I counted 35. They didn't pay us much attention, except for one time a group of four came right up to our beach chairs and tried to eat my dad's hat. And it was on his head. 

The pictures will be forthcoming.

    I can't wait to see your vacation photos...I remember the ones you posted from a previous trip, and they were breathtaking!! LOVE the chubby beach horses, I can't believe they just wander around the beach like that. Beautiful. I hope to take a vacation out there one day!

    I've been looking forward to your photos all week! I even went through your beach photos from last year and the year before... :D

    btw - this his how lame I am. When I went on a road trip in November 2005, we passed Rochester on our way to Buffalo (we live in Quebec city). Passing the sign "Rochester", I had to take a photo... later, I named it "Home of LJC". :)

    i know this is probably obvious to some but where are the outer banks? do the horses just hang out at the beach during the day and go somewhere else at night? lynn

    lynn - the Outer Banks is on the coast of North Carolina. The wild horses are in the 4x4 area of the Outer Banks and they wander the beach during the day then head up to the dunes at night.
