Colonial City Horses, Colonial Williamsburg, Williamsburg, Virginia


This pasture is home to some of the horses who earn their keep in Colonial Williamsburg. They get as much attention grazing as they do escorting carriages down Duke of Gloucester Street.  They are so used to visitors that they will often stop grazing and walk to anyone who stands by the fence to offer them grass by hand.

  6. Your area's architecture is so very similar to my hometown's...we live in the Western Reserve area of Ohio & have many historical buildings such as these.

    LOVE your music choices, too as well as those fall foliage shots across the water!!!
