Little Horses With Big Hearts

During the holidays, I enjoy many of the places I photograph and people I meet, but Thursday afternoon was as uplifting as anything I’ve encountered in a while.   Wendi Threlkeld, who works at Georgetown’s Visiting Angels Homecare, owns two miniature horses, Goodness and Mercy.   Goodness is 2 and Mercy is a spunky 7-month-old.   Goodness tops out at 200 pounds while Mercy barely registers on the scales at around 45 pounds.   Wendi and her friends added a bit of Christmas cheer to the residents of The Wesleyan at Scenic.   Amazingly, these equine beauties do quite well indoors!  Everyone loved them, but Beth Demaris, giving Goodness a smooch in the opening photo, was particularly enamored with these sweet babies.   This was a whole lot of fun.  I’ve seen much in my career, but horses in hallways is pretty unique!  These are a few images taken for my friends at the Williamson County Sun
