Virginia (6)

One of the most spectacular things about our trip has been these incredible, narrow, windy roads with all these horse farms on them. Huge properties for miles and miles. Towns full of tack stores, feed stores, vets, etc. here are a few pictures of our daily to Jeannies equine clinic



These things are called coups. They are built so tha t when the local landowners (not called farmers down here) want to do fox hunting they can cross on everyones property. Fox hunting very popular. Ten of them scheduled on Jeannie's road. Often followed up with serious injuries each season
