More Horses!

Hey Gang!

This is one of the dioramas I was working on a while back. I took pictures to see how
it looked.  I see some changes I can make and some things I want to do better. 
I decided to post the photos along with a story anyway.  I will work on the paddock
in the meantime.  Here is the post for Thundercloud!

Ahiga and his wife have just moved to the Iroquois and Native American settlement.
Ahiga has always worked with livestock; that is what he has come here to do. 

So it's a warm day in Johnston, and the horses were taken out to the paddock.

 Ahiga brought out food to feed the horse with.

Ahiga: This is going to be a great day!  I'm glad to have a break from the snow.

This will be a good day for the foal to come out and meet the other horses.

 Water was added to the trough for them to drink.

Hello Buttercup!

You need a little exercise even though you've given birth.

Being a mommy has been good for you!  You are not as jumpy.


She really wanted to get to the hay.


Hello little one!

Taffy came over for a pat.

Taffy doesn't come to many people, but she comes to Ahiga.

Both horses went over to get a drink.



Midnight was also out for the day of sun.

Hey, big fellow!
Midnight was really happy to be out.

Bison: Greetings

Ahiga: Greetings! So you made your way here!
How long have you been here?

Does the Chief know that you are here?

Bison: I just got here. I came directly to the paddock. Smiling, Bison
said No! I would appreciate it if you don't tell him I was here.

Ahiga: He is the Chief, so I can't promise that. He said with a slight twitch to his lips.

Bison: I have a favor to ask of you!

All the horses gathered around the water.
Bison: This is Thundercloud!  He needs to be boarded while I travel.

Ahiga: He is a nice-looking horse! A Roan!

Bison: I just picked him up.  I purchased him a few months back, but I have to
take a trip to the West Coast.

Bison: I'll pay his board, and I need him cared for until I come back!
I have his papers and records with me for you.

Ahiga: I guess you have shows..... And when you come back?

Bison: I will deal with things when I come back!

Ahiga: You put me in a spot!  Ok, the horse can stay!

Bison: Hear that, fellow, you got a home with friends.

You know there will always be a place for you here!
Bison: Yeah, I know!

Ahiga: We are not the only new members here.  You should meet them.
Bison: Yeah, OK.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

I Know It Is Late But Happy Thanksgiving!


Hey Gang!

It is about time for a new post.  I have been busy with work and the 
Thanksgiving so my post is late but here it goes!
If you read this post anywhere other than
It is a fake!!! Run!!

Hey Guys, it is Tom Turkey here!

I made it through Thanksgiving...

But I'm still nervous!

I only got to make it  to New Years!

 There is not much call for turkey after that!

So I'm staying low and moving around and keeping my eyes peeled!
I think I hear something coming.  I'd better hide!

 It was Bison and Buttercup out for a ride.
Bison: This is a great fall day!

 We'll stop here for a few minuets.
 You can eat some of that grass over there.
 You are such a pretty girl!
He rubs her behind the ears.
Buttercup: I am such a pretty girl aren't I!
Bison: I just love it out here this time of year and this time of day!
 The light casts wonderful shadows on everything.
 It feels so warm on your skin too!
 What is that over there!
 I think I see something.
 Is that a turkey?

 It is time for us to start back home girl!

OK, Thanks For Looking!
