And because I hate to do a post without an image and because of a recent series of Black Beauty-themed posts on the Books, Mud And Compost blog, I'm including an image of one of my favorite horsey possessions from childhood, a little 45 of the Anna Sewell story.

And for anyone who follows hunter/jumper shows, of course, Devon was/is this week. Equestrian Life provides a free live broadcast. Peter Leone and Select won the very big class, the $100,000 Grand Prix of Devon, on Thursday night. The final big class on Saturday night will be the $50,000 Idle Dice Open Jumper Stake. Below, a photo of Idle Dice and Rodney Jenkins, from the book Show Jumping by Pamela Macgregor-Morris.
