Featured Video: Lazy Days

Summer is right around the corner, and while it may have been years since the last time you had a true summer vacation, the long hours of daylight still allow for plenty of time for lounging in the sun, relaxing, and living life with no agenda. Need some inspiration? In the latest addition to filmmaker Julien Guntz’s “Like Horses” series, we meet three draft horses who know how to take it slow. Take a few minutes and see how they while away an afternoon on the French countryside.

Check out more of Guntz’s videos here and here.

Just had to watch it again and enjoy the green grass and sunshine! It's been a long cold snowy winter with still lots of deep snow on the ground. Needed to see grass! LOL!

Oh this is so much better than the 14 inches of snow in my pastures! Bring on summer!
