When I saw that the weekly photo challenge was free spirit, I immediately thought of this photo.
My husband took this last fall.
It’s dusk and the sky was brilliant.
No fences, saddle, bridle or halter. What better way (in my opinion) to represent “free spirit” than an Appaloosa. With their rich Native American history…
Free Spirit

Ok so I’m a little late on the weekly photo challenge.
But I just couldn’t bring myself to go into town.
So I thought I’d snap some photos of my own “gated” community.
Here we have a 3 apartment complex. Looks run down but very sturdy and cleaned daily.
One apartment comes with a security camera.
…that will cost ya extra each month.
We offer a large playground…
…and day care, at no extra charge.
The food court is open 24/7…
…as well as the bath house.
Here are a couple current vacancies. 1 bedroom on top and a spacious loft style w/central air, on the bottom.
This is my “urban”.

I submitted this to the dog shaming blog site but, thought I’d share it with you too.
She actually picks the smaller ones that fit in her mouth unnoticed…
…until I find her under the kitchen table with a mouth full!

I just love them.
I love their singing and chirping. It’s really pretty.
We’ve had a couple of batches of chicks out of 3 other established nests but this was a new one I discovered last week.
I’m amazed at how fast they grow.
Just a couple days before I took this photo they all looked liked Larry from the 3 Stooges.
The downy feathers on their little heads was a funny mess.
I wonder what they did with their little hats?

My husband took this photo on one of his many quests in photography.
I thought it represented the theme “merge” quite well.

I was going to sit outside and enjoy the nice weather.
Maybe read a book…
I was wrong.
