Why am I talking about Horses?


Hello  nice to see you are reading my blogs, well today we are talking horses.
Horses according to Wikipedia is a hooved mammal. The horse has evolved over the past 45-55 million years from a small multi-toed creature to the large single toed animal of today.

Although most horses today are tamed there are still some wild horses out there.
There are many variations of horses to name a few there is the Albanian,Appoloosa,Arabian,Belgian,Canadian,Clydesdale, Egyptian or Baladi, Mustang, Mongolian, Palomino ,Paint and Percheron.

Now here is a little story about a horse who stood its ground taken from a book I have on Newfoundland: Picture the following image of a horse which is a mug as that horse

There are strange tales told in the Newfoundland history. But none  so incredible as the grave misforture that befell Tom Conner in 1804.

Tom was on route to a village nearby when all of a sudden his path was blocked by this black horse. Tom quickly swung his musket to his shoulder and fired at the horse. He fired again at a range impossible to miss. Yet the Black Horse stood impassively in his tracks. Tom very frightened made a fast detour. He told his incredible story to the villagers but was laughed at because he was afraid. Yet no

one laughed the next morning when Tom was found dead, without any marks on him at exactly the same spot he had seen the Black Horse. Strange? Yet stranger still is this- some months later Tom's young wife, young son and older brother were all found dead as well with not one mark on them, in the exact spot Tom had died. To this day this mystery cannot be explained.

Hope you liked the story here  are a couple more of my horse products
