#148 Hits 17"2"

#148 standing 17'1" about Jan. 2014 hits 17'2".  Looking to be new dimension. Here's 17'1" shot from earlier this summer, and notice by the eyes how much this dude enjoyed tack work at the time:

For last two weeks I'd looked at the horse and he seemed more massive and visually dominant somehow, prompting another measurement, and, indeed 17'2".  Hard to describe a horse this big.  Goes from big to giant.  Nob says ground looks even farther down, if that is possible. We finally got the horse comfortably in the trailer.  At 17'1" there was Q if trailer tall enough. Now, from last eve, no way.  We'll need an expensive mod job including cutting hole in roof.

Till the new memory card arrives the Kodak Playful has on board memory for about 4 stills.  Here are two of #148 taken couple of days ago.



To convey size--the top of my head is even with top of those withers, and I am 6'1.5".

Mr. Nob declines tack work last two days in 24 degree weather.  Forgot these temps as being this cold.  Brrrr..  Nob will give it a try today at same temps. Riderless speed work last eve. #148 puts in possibly the fastest 300 yds I've seen at my farm.  It was a wow move.
