Got tired of moving snow...went out for some fun sleighing

[grsthegreat]

We had 9-10 " of new snow over 4" previous snowfall, and the temps stayed at 28F today after being single digits for a few days. So i finally got tired of moving snow and decided to take one of the horses thru the woods in the back of the property. It was WAY fun, but the trees covered me and the sleigh in snow. Here are a few pics the wife took for fun. Hope you enjoy. By the way... this is a Norwegian Fjord horse and a circa early 1900's sleigh. The sleigh is scheduled for some TLC after this winter.

Now you know that is this years Christmas card - right. Just get them printed up with your name inside.

Man does that make me want to take the family for a sleigh ride.

Thanks for the nice replies. Yup we do love sleigh rides. The wife and i have been doing combined driving events, carriage driving and sleighs for about 7 years. The pics have decked out many of our Xmas cards over the years. heres an earlier pic we sent out years ago
