Last weekend I found this little piece of equipment....I have had fun with it all week, learning how to program it and also finding out the "Waypoints" of the real owner. Instead of a "Home" marker...there is a "Barn" one. It is the only word in the GPS unit.
As I drove to my barn the other day..I had the unit on and it counted down the miles and pointed the way to it's owner's "Barn". I got within .60 m of it...though it looked to be pointing me into the woods.
As I headed out last weekend...little did I know that my reflection here , on my car outside the barn, would be used with the Garmin one above!
Today, after I trim my mare toes and fit some new hoof boots for her to try out, I mount up and ride out to find the O counter mark..that is what will occur if I actually make it to the "waymark" they have placed. I will have stealth and Mace handy...you never know out in the country, what you'll find. I had this thought- that because it said "BARN"- they were okay people..but one does not know that....as someone recently reminded me.
Hello Kac. Really nice and cool reflections.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a wonderful weekend my friend.
Regards.
"My Weekend Reflections"
Both great reflections. very special
ReplyDeletenice reflection shots. I like your photos taken from the horse's back, its a nice perspective. I especially like the photo in the previous post where you're heading into the woods.
ReplyDeleteI like the perspective while riding the horse! Unique! What an interesting gadget...I am not sure I understand it completely. But, you have a great time out and about with it! Fun reflections!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots! Can't wait to see if you find the "barn."
ReplyDeleteoh, look how her coat is gleaming in the sun! like you greased her up for the photo, heheehe.
ReplyDeletewhat fun you can have with a gps. i am impressed you figured out how to use it.
have fun,
~lytha
It's smart to remain cautious.
ReplyDeleteVery nice reflections!
Love the creative reflections! Interesting GPS search, hope it's a fun discovery! I must have missed something, how did you come upon the unit?
ReplyDeleteFun shots! My gut says they must be OK if they put "barn" in as their home base. But indeed, be careful where you wanter. If you find the owner, and then decide you need a GPS of your own, you will be a bit more educated on what you want after your free trial of this unit! lol
ReplyDeleteNice reflections! And interesting posts of your rides with your sister.
ReplyDeleteThose are two unique and very cool reflections!
ReplyDeleteGreat and cool reflections!
ReplyDeleteInteresting pictures, Kacy and do be careful!!!
ReplyDeleteLol, funny pics, I really like the second one.
ReplyDeleteGood shots! Amazing what we can see when we look at things a little differently.
ReplyDeleteYour second shot is creative, unique and a great reflection.
ReplyDeleteI thought the first was clever, but the second it even better. I wear a similar vest when I ride my motorcycle, so you've given me some photo ideas, thanks!
ReplyDeleteI see you! The second one looks like an abstract painting!
ReplyDeleteThose are just wonderful reflections my friend. I really like them :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting reflections!
ReplyDeleteI love your shots from on top of your horse. I have just happened along here via a shadow shot sunday blog visit. My brother has just bought one of those GPS units and I was having a look yesterday. They look great fun. I like the way the colours in both photos have links.
ReplyDeleteI have a Beautiful Blogger award for you over on my blog

Please don’t feel like you have to do it - especially if you have already won a zillion times!
Oooh, an Etrex! I've heard good things about those - they've got some features that are better than mine and some that I don't like as much. I hope you love yours! If the "barn" is a "field" of "green plants," you should ride away very quickly!
ReplyDeleteLove the car reflection picture.
I do love horses, but it was my sister who ended up with the farm. That is a neat device. You got some very unique reflections...I know I am late..thank you for visiting my clean car....
ReplyDeleteyup.. amen, amen.. somewhere where the L-rd closes a door, He opens a window"
