I concur with both “amazing photo” and “wicked cool costume”. Not only did the costume deserve a prize, so did the picture! ---

Yea, so cool! And I love your gf’s toenail polish. ---

No. I certainly didn’t see color. Starting to wonder if we’re being pranked or something. ---

I think they are referring to the color pictures on Oct 7 of the dogs on the pontoon boat. You can see kayaker’s girlfriend bare foot, with toenail polish, in one of those. ---

Ah! Yes, thanks, that would explain it. I hadn’t even noticed that there was a foot in that picture, let alone deduced who it was part of. ---

Starting to wonder if we’re being pranked or something.   To be sure, I downloaded the image, loaded it up in ZPS, and boosted the saturation all the way.   There is no color at all in that image.   The file is a 3×8 .JPG, which could contain color, but it doesn’t.  Just shades of grey. ---

That horse had remarkable conformation. ---

Thanks. And a remarkably kind disposition. Here’s a conformation shot in his midteens. I lost him at age 23 because of a pasture accident. [![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GZ4Mjx3XcAAQrii?format=jpg&name=small) ](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GZ4Mjx3XcAAQrii?format=jpg&name=small) ---

What a handsome horse. I’m sorry you lost him too soon. ---

Thanks. He had such a personality, even though he was euthanized in 2005, people who knew him still remember him fondly. I had a Morgan gelding for a couple of years, lost him to founder when he was 23. So when Ben’s 23rd birthday was approaching I kept warning him he was on the brink! And then he lived to be 30. Here’s ahead shot of Commander, and a picture of him with Ben.

> [@Baker](#): > > That horse had remarkable conformation. I forgot to mention, Nick’s sire was a champion halter horse, way back before the overmuscled Impressive-breds dominated the halter classes. Lots of Shoemaker/Wiescamp breeding on Nick’s topline. Nick was foaled in 1982. ---

They were all well cared for, ye$$$$$, and they all enjoyed people schmoozing with them, especially children. ---
