This week's assignment: Starts with M, Favorite, and Mini.
Starts with M: MOON starts with M. This is only a sliver, but even so, it's the MOON.
Favorite: This is Socks the MULE. A rather handsome MULE after his MANE and tail were trimmed. This was taken during a MULE photo shoot. He is being sold, so I took pics for the sale magazine. I will MISS seeing him run out in the pasture, but won't miss his trying to sneak through the gate every time we need to go somewhere. He likes to sneak through and enjoy a grass snack. Our yard is nearly an acre, so it takes lots of energy for running around like crazy people, and loud yelling to get him out. We need a trained herding dog. Gus, our red heeler, is useless. All he wants to do is stand on the porch and bark at them. :)
Mini: These are not ponies, nor are they colts. These are MINI horses and they are full grown. Not suitable for riding unless you are a MINI person.
Just Because: Posting a pic from foaling season this spring. The is a MARE and her colt.
And Finally: This is Mr. MOCKINGBIRD in the late evening sun.

This week's assignment: Starts with L, Favorite, and Lake.
Starts with L: LOAFING shed starts with L. These two guys were enjoying some time out of the sun.
Favorite: The LAWNMOWER man uses this horse trailer to haul his equipment. He left it outside the fence in the pasture. The horses thought they were going for a ride and LOADED themselves.
Lake: Sylvan LAKE is a small lake inside Custer State Park, SD.
Just Because: Caught this red-tailed hawk as he was LEAVING his perch.
And Finally: A LONGHORN on a LEATHER bridle. A favorite of mine.

This week's assignment: Starts with K, Favorite, and Kinds.
Starts with K: This is a KITE, a Mississippi Kite that is.
Favorite: I love animals and this KID holding this Kitty is my grandson, who happens to be a favorite of mine. It was a stray KITTEN he was trying to convince his mother to let him KEEP.
Kinds: There are many different KINDS of wildflowers and I love them all. Here are a few from this summer.
Just Because: A beautiful Western KINGBIRD handing out on a barbed-wire fence.
And Finally: Okay, one more bird. This is a Belted KINGFISHER.

This week's assignment: Starts with J, Favorite, and Junk.
Starts with J: On a recent trip to Oklahoma City, while waiting for the horse races to begin, we had lunch at a restaurant located inside Remington Park. There were JUGS on the tables. Sadly, the JUGS were empty.
Favorite: I do enjoy going to the races. It's one of my favorite things to do. This JOCKEY is riding a horse I placed a massive $2 bet on. Sadly, he didn't win.
This is but one of many JOCKEY statutes scattered around the paddock at Remington Park.
Junk: This is a JUNKY old truck hanging over the entrance to a store called JUNK Stars in Tishomingo, OK. The store is owned by Dorothy Shelton, Blake's mother.
Just Because: This slot machine gives one the opportunity to match the letter J. I didn't play, but I did admire the colors.
And Finally: This statute of JESUS is located across the street from the Oklahoma City Bombing Museum. Sad.
