    And right here in my town........7 mini horses!!! Actually got to see them up close and personal. This family had a sign out front that they had mini horses for sale so we drove up this long driveway and lo and behold there was a farm! Chickens and roosters running all over - pigs in a pen, a peacock in a huge tall pen and bunnies. Probably other things I didn't to see too.

    Let me say that Karla's minis are much cuter as are Kay's horses, but it was still fun to find this treasure almost in the middle of town! They were eating and the electric fence was right there, so I did not get to pet them.

    And the owner came out to talk to me and she is a quilter! Just starting a OBW. Small world.

    Made my day.

    The lady that works in the office building next to mine and just happens to live down the road from me owns mini horses. I see them in her yard all the time. Pretty cute. She calls them "big dogs"
