You are NOT Walter :-(

We were fortunate to receive some much needed precipitation starting yesterday afternoon and most of the evening.  Went to inspect my water catchment system for dummies when a movement by the corral caught my eye.  I caught a glimpse of the tail of a horse and immediately got my hopes up.

Ran inside the house to put on my rubber boots and grab my camera.  As I made my way to the corral I noticed that the horse had a white patch on its face...Walter did not have that!


 I believe this horse is a mare.  She is big and tall like Walter but is in better physical condition than he was.


She has kind eyes but she is not my little Walter...sigh :-(


Just yesterday I made my way to the corral before the rains so either she arrived after that or today.  I feel so sorry for her already.  The corral is a soggy mess and while they seemed to have filled up her water barrel there is no food or hay around.


 I have not lost hope that Walter will soon turn up.
