What'd You Wake-Up To This Morning?

One morning, almost 2 weeks ago, Duane & I walked out to have coffee on the front porch before he went in to work and there were 3 horses eating grass from our newly laid lawn.  I quickly tried to grab some carrots and apple slices to keep them in our yard and have Duane call animal control, but they were not interested.  Shortly there after, a couple of police officers showed up.  They had been on the hunt for them all night.  But the horses were sly and were able to evade them.  However, they made the mistake of wandering into our open gate to the backyard and were finally corralled by one of the officers.  Turns out they were just out for a stroll because thier fence had been damaged.  The owner came and got them and all was well.  But, prior to our house they had been in other people's yards, at the pool, at the pond.  They were everywhere on our side of Providence.  I think it's safe to say that we do not live in McKinney anymore.  (thanks Lori!)
