Serenity/Rural Thursday

East Gwillimbury is rural but close to the City of Toronto. Even though the city is ever expanding, large tracks of land to the north are still farm land and there are many, many horse farms.

    Such long-legged babies! I have seen foals before, but never had one that was ours or lived near me!

    I like your photos of the horses. I hope that at least some of these farms can hold out against urban sprawl.

    Lovely! Could be Ocala. Those folks from Ontario who own horse farms here, probably came from this very place!
