To reach my house you must turn off a busy highway and drive down into the river valley. This fellow lives along the highway, just before my turnoff, so I count him as a neighbor.
He is a beautiful draft horse, possibly a Belgian. I am no authority on horses though.
I am not acquainted with his people, but their horse is a very friendly sort! He was coming near to say hello, probably wondering if there was an apple being offered, but traffic was heavy on the highway and it didn't seem wise to stop there for long.
He seems well loved! His stable is beautiful and his fence is decorated with Christmas lights. I suspect Santa will remember to bring him a Christmas gift!
