jo and the poloponies

For the past few months I've been visiting these poloponies. Lynn takes care of them on a little ranch near Franktown. I've been working on getting to know them & have found myself falling in love with them. The primary obstacle for me has been to just not be afraid of such large animals. I have decided to make a summer out of learning all I can about them--& ultimately learn to ride! They are so fascinating, and Lynn is a wonderful teacher.

This is Dolphin's Xmas gift to Amy: a 3D sculpture print. Too awesome for me to even wrap my 20th century mind around.
