Tony the Pony is Mark's mom's new horse. He is not a pony, but when you name a horse "Tony," you invite the rhyme. Tony's favorite thing in the world is eating grass. Mark and I attempted in vain to get him to do something else (like trot around a paddock) this weekend. However, his placid, gluttonly demeanor has one advantage: he holds still for pictures.

Here is Tony from a distance, waiting by his paddock gate. Perhaps we have carrots, hmm?

Here is Tony closer up, engaged in his favorite pastime of cropping the turf.

And here he is very close. Note how totally bored he is with the camera thing. Must . . . eat . . . more . . . grass . . .
