Horses in my house



A long time ago I had a formal portrait done of Charisma - Cari as she was often known. She looks a bit more formal than in this photo.


It is a black and white drawing of her head and she looks quite impressive. When I took it to get it framed, the sales person said - we will take good care of her. I liked that.


Besides the Lipizaneer pictures that my mom made, I have other horsey items in my house.


In my basement there are horse brasses and a very large picture of me and Cari.


I have one small grey horse and one small grey donkey ornament which I got when I was at Traf.


I have various dish towels with horses on them. I think that Kathi gave me all of them.


I have a stuffed horse that looks more like a giraffe. Some summer students at my work wanted to give me a stuffed horse but this was the closest that they could find. I appreciated the gesture.


Then I have some horse books and of course some horse stories on my Web site.
