Located in Oregon, USA, featuring Stayton and other nearby towns in the Willamette Valley.
Horsing around
This is Mac, a horse which belongs to my brother’s neighbor. He (the horse, not my brother or his neighbor) is wearing a fly mask to keep pesky little bugs off his face. That got me thinking.
One of the joys of having hands is that I can scratch an itch as it occurs, but if all one has are hooves, then flies, mosquitoes, and various other little creatures would be beyond annoying. On the other hand (hah!), feed bags like horses use would be rather nifty. The only physical activity I’d have to engage in is chewing… no more exerting myself, lifting forks, spoons, etc.
At least, so I suppose. I haven’t actually tried it. Not yet, anyway.
The photo was taken a bit south of Salem, Oregon, somewhere out in the boonies.

Feed bags for humans would be especially handy — er, convenient — when driving or working at the computer!
