The adventures of Gilly the rescue horse and his side kick and partner in crime, Pokey the donkey.

Being with a horse is a journey that never ends. What they have to teach us is amazing; but we must quiet our mind to hear them. ~ jca

Morning Creek Crossing

We have had a lot of rain the past few days and the creek is up. Gilly and Pokey are now in a field across the road from the house and have to cross the creek to get up to the gate where I feed them. They have a shed back the hollow for shelter, which they seldom use, unless to get away from flies. I wondered if they would cross the water since it was getting deep; Gilly starting in...
Gilly is half way across now and the water is almost to his knees; Pokey is following right behind.
Pokey now starting into the deeper water, Gilly is coming out. This little creek is usually not to where Gilly is now.
Pokey coming out of the water, he didn't hesitate at all, just followed his big buddy Gilly.
This evening the water was up a lot higher, but I didn't get any pictures. Still both came across the water without a thought; it was up to Pokey's belly!
