A Fun Adventure.....

WOW - did we ever have a great adventure last night!!! We went with Joanie to Ontario International Airport in Ontario, California, to pick up some horses that flew in from Kentucky.  It was soooooooooooo dark when we got to the gate - thank goodness for electric lights!  The horses came to California to race this winter at Santa Anita Race Track in Arcadia.  Here we are waiting at the gate to be escorted onto the runway where the planes come in and land! 


Waiting in the truck....

THE PLANE, THE PLANE

After we were escorted in, we got to watch the plane landing and rolling up to where the unloading ramp is kept. We couldn't get too close to the horses - everyone said we might scare them accicentally - of course, that was really silly, as we don't think horses are afraid of mousies or smiling bears - do you?

Here's the plane landing...

Here it is rolling to the loading and unloading ramp the horses walk down.....

I got really excited - being so close to the plane!!!!!

Hope you enjoyed our latest adventure - there are more photos that may be put in a Flickr album later. Be sure to watch for more adventures - you'll see them first right here on our blog.....

We are very pleased with ourselves for helping Joanie get these horses loaded and on their way to Santa Anita.......
