“I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.”
― Winston S. Churchill
Ten years ago I saw them jump ditches for the first time in the Eempolders, I couldn't believe my eyes, but I was able to take a picture of it that you can see here (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/17051018457/in/album-...). I wasn't completely satisfied with the quality, my camera at the time couldn't do much better either, but since then I have made several failed attempts to achieve a better result.
Until about 4 weeks ago in the same Eempolders I saw a bunch of hormone-addled hares running after each other very close by. As everyone probably knows, you are a bit less careful under the influence of such aphrodisiacs, and you forget to look around you. So several ditches were jumped, and unfortunately I missed all the opportunities (I thought) because too far, wrong light, too late etc. etc.
But eventually one hare came strolling back and then I was in the right place, camera ready.
And when you see them jump you have to laugh. They are like springs, from a standing position they effortlessly jump over a ditch of about 4 meters wide. At a comparable size, Armand Duplantis would pale if a hare were allowed to participate. From a standing position over the obstacle, without a pole, and effortlessly jumping 8 meters high. Bob Beamon would not even put on his shoes anymore. If a hare participates, it jumps at full speed over the sand pit and probably ends up in the water pit of the steeple chase.
The title might be a little bit strange, but older people might know what I am referring to.
When you visit this town you see plenty of pig statues everywhere. The locals believe that the name Schweinfurt came from a long time ago when wild pigs crossed the river. Some historians do not think this is correct but it is a good folklore story and it still continues today.
Introducing Lucy. She is my son's pet and has just moved into the living room while we fix Erics floors. The poor creature has managed 7 years but now it's time for her to put up with my camera. She doesn't mind at all. The most cheerful little soul she is!
These two bales are from local businesses that entered in the contest. I thought it was neat to show the business in the background. Elkton Bank & Trust decided to put "Pig-hay" banks in front of each of their branches.

Usually there's a giant rat placed at these non-union construction sites but this one had a big inflated pig.

This enables the animals to eat the many acorns and so allow less for the ponies to find as they can be poisonous to these animals
