Cynthia, I am also in the process of rereading Kristin Lavrensdatter altho
my attention span falters a bit when I pick up the 1000 pages.  Of course it
is really three books in one.  Jean

Horses Looking Up

One place we boarded, and close to  where I board now, is near an area that is
popular with balloonists. The horses always enjoyed watching them fly over And
then there is the day when one came over a rise that was at eye leve with the
horse I was riding and then flew over us so low we could hear them yelling and
the firing noise as they tried to lift up higher. That was really exciting
according to my horse but I didn't enjoy it much!

Kristin Lavrensdatter trilogy is one of my all time favorites. I first read it
in high school (much later than 1928!) and then reread it several years ago (pre
Fjord days)

Horses looking up...

Interesting...  Our three mares have a paddock that runs about 15 feet from
our house and in the mornings (when it's warmer) my husband and I often lift
up our bedroom window to say good morning to them.  I have watched them
instinctively look for the doors on the first level of our home, but after
we chat with them for a bit, they realize where our voices are coming from
and look up at us on the second floor.  One of our mares looks up at us with
a look as if she's saying, What the heck are you doing up there? Get down
her and give me breakfast, NOW!

  People always told us that horses don't look up but I got some pics of them
looking up to see what that horrible noise was.
