Horse #1

Christi and I spent a beautiful (but hot!) day in the park today working together on our first horse. We're so excited to have finally started, and we had a lot of fun! I'm still so happy we are able to do this. The maintenance staff at the park could not have been nicer or more helpful to us. We had an interview with Kitty from the Ithaca Journal, so keep your eyes peeled for a story about the project! Chased away by high winds and oncoming rain, we did not quite finish our first horse, but she is already looking so much better. She's a copper colored horse with a black mane and tail, and a nice black sock on one of her feet. Brightly colored saddle and bridle.  -Julia
