Stopping for Naked Sheep

I was driving home from my friend's yesterday after riding my horse, Henry.   It's what I do now, spend time with my horse.   But I sometimes miss my camera, so I usually make sure I have it with me, just in case.   I had an apple with me yesterday, on the seat of the truck, which I forgot to give to Henry and hadn't yet eaten for myself.   It fell onto the floor and was rolling around with every turn.   Things like that make me a little crazy because I desperately want to reach over and pick up whatever is rolling around.   Can't do that when you're driving, right?   So I pulled over to take care of the problem, just a couple miles from home.   And the naked sheep were grazing in the big pasture that sometimes has mini donkeys and other times has sheep.   Photo op!   Right?   


I took a few photos of the view because I find it so beautiful, even this time of year when the grasses and fields are brown.   That's why California is nicknamed The Golden State, did you know?


I didn't edit these photos at all.   I didn't even have a filter on my lens.   It was just that beautiful, at least to my eye.   The contrasting colors against the crisp sky are pleasing to me.   It's the reason I named my ranch Autumn Sky.   


I hope you have a nice week.   I am going to make an effort to take more photos and share some with you here.   Thanks for visiting!

Good idea not to reach down for rolling apple while driving. My neighbor dropped a can of soda, reached down to get it, hit another pickup head on and totalled his pickup.
Forget what's rolling on the floor...you've got rolling hills and naked sheep!!!!...:)JP

It is beautiful and I didn't know that about California. Are you just pulling my leg because I'm gullible?

Sure hope the sheep were wearing SPF 45 to keep from burning their naked tushes!
