Festival Of The Horse

Each September Georgetown has a celebration called Festival Of The Horse.  Last night was the kids parade.  The picture in my Cross Processing post from yesterday of Emily was taken during that parade.  Saturday evening, there is a parade which celebrates horses.  Here are some pictures from that parade.

Emily was in this parade riding in a horse drawn carriage.

This year, it seems like there were many more horses and people were more elaborately costumed.  Here is a  sampling of some of the photos I took.

First a trick rider standing on the back of a couple of horses.

Next a horse with the longest main I have ever seen.

I thought this horse had a pretty mane.

A zorse?  A cross between a zebra and a horse!

I liked this horse a lot and this lady’s outfit.  I am guessing this is some kind of Spanish horse.

The horse on the left below had the longest tail I have ever seen.  

This little girl gets my vote for the cutest in the parade.

Whenever Melissa saw a dog, she had me take a picture of it.  The dog on the left is riding in a wagon.

I liked this ladies outfit.  Very regal.

This is just a VERY small sampling of the horses in the parade.  It was excellent.
