Wild Horses, Kitty Hawk, 7/3/23

I attended my wife’s family reunion in Kitty Hawk, NC last week. in between doing nothing, chatting with her cousins and their families, and celebrating her Uncle Ford & Aunt Magda’s 60th anniversary, we had a couple nice excursions.

On 7/3 we visited a nearby beach and dunes (Corolla, NC) and saw wild horses descended from stock abandoned there several hundred years ago by the Spanish.

The horses seem to be pretty imperturbable and most people I saw had the decency to keep their distance. Hope they can hang in there.

The music seemed appropriate for these creatures. They are in a bit of a bubble for the moment, there is something otherwordly about seeing them going about their business a few miles away from blown out development.
