'Allo Robert' - Waiting
I wish someone would give this old horse a home. He's lost a leg but it's there - hanging off the frame. He's waiting...waiting...waiting...

I once toured the Barrango factory in South San Francisco where they make carrousels. It was delightful. This horse needs to go in for a check up.
ReplyDeleteHe looks lovely even without a leg. Those toys should be restorated to their original beauty.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter, Jilly!!
you've caught the longing in his eye.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful quote to go with this one. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteDespite its appearance, this horse is full of character; great face!
ReplyDeleteI think I love Allo Robert! I certainly love your photos of it.
ReplyDeleteA good old horse is called "øg" in Danish.
ReplyDeletepoor old nag - at least he must have had some love over the years.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Petrea, I think Allo Robert seems like a wonderful place to spend a lot of time just looking around and perhaps a few photos as well? You did a nice job on this old fellow Jilly.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter mon amie,

Yes I agree with Gerald this old loved horse could tell a few stories of his carousel days.
