Lisa + Jennifer Ride on Over for Burgers.


Our neighbor Lisa and her horse-riding pal Jennifer arrived at our back door this evening for Poppina's burgers and potato salad.

Not only was it a treat to have these cowgals show up for dinner, but the size of their steeds was daunting.  The horses are "Shires," easily 50% larger than regular English-saddle style horses.

Yet when "Mickie" and "Pete" were tied up to a maple tree while we humans enjoyed our chow, the big draft horses were perfect guests -- docile, well-behaved and patient.

I've got some road apples to clear off the back yard, but that's a small price to pay for having these magnificent beasts (and their inspirational riders) pay us a visit this evening!
