During [these] periods of relaxation after concentrated intellectual activity, the intuitive mind seems to take over and can produce the sudden clarifying insights which give so much joy and delight. ~Fritjof Capra, physicist

Rocky and Salsa have moved temporarily to the front pen so their pen can be used for a guest. I’m still buried in the workalanche, with major projects due January 14 (today!), January 20, January 21, and January 27. Hence, February 1 for re-starting the Parelli program. But yesterday I took advantage of a canceled conference call to go outside and take some photos with my phone.

This is Cotton, a polo pony who is here for a few weeks to study with Erin:

Note that Cotton took down the friendly-game poncho and ripped it to shreds before his nap. Here’s what it used to look like:

I climbed up into the tree for these shots in the new pen:
