Description
Grand Hotel - Mackinac Island, MIThis was one of the horses pulling the Grand Hotel carriage used for taking us down to the ferries. This one was such a beautiful chestnut color and looked so noble in the morning sun performing his duty.
You're not allowed to touch any of the carriage horses, so I had to settle for just giving it some kind words and noises to show him what a beautiful horse he was.

Great shot. I love the way you blocked out that carriage drivers face to avoid any legal wrangles when you sell this photo to the worlds second largest jigsaw manufacturer.

LOL! Yes, that was of course the entire point of that exact placement...

Gosh, it really is beautiful. Why aren't you allowed to pet them? Just curious. Nice shot. So, majestic looking.

I think just so they don't get distracted or anything by too many people trying to touch them or even just keep from from getting startled.

That makes sense. I can understand why they wouldn't want them petted then. Thanks for explaining it to me.

Besides, I TOTALLY got my horse fix when we went on an hour and a half horse trail ride by ourselves on two horses called Maverick and Goose. We were making Top Gun references the whole time. LOL
