A few pictures from the pony swim Chincoteague today. It stormed like crazy as the ponies were set to swim at slack tide (the moments between high and low tide), but a little business from Mother Nature did not hold back the Salt Water Cowboys from driving the ponies on...
Before the storm, a Saltwater Cowboy rides his horse, a mare named Lady, through the marsh for a cold drink. |
The cowboy's horses from the other side arrive on Chincoteague via party boat. |
This was right before I put my camera away -- we got drenched - ponies and people. |
An hour later, parading down Main Street to the carnival grounds. Now the sun decides to come back out! |
Tight quarters for two stallions leads to ... disagreements. |
Where are we Mama?? |
The kick zone... |
