I can tell by his eyes that the guitar-picking cowboy just realized there's a bear behind him!  Nice scene JB.

The bear has just said to the guitar player; "play Classical Gas and it had better be good".

This poor girl's equestrian venture is headed for disaster using this critter.

Never saw anyone try to ride a Clydesdale as they are very wide and categorized as draft horses. Love the setup JB.

@bob-jackman Bob there has been the odd Clydesdale race at a regular race meeting. I remember seeing one many years ago at a provincial track in New South Wales. Heres a pic of one in Exeter in the UK. They are magnificent animals.

Interesting geoff. Years ago we lived across the street from the Clydesdale breeding farm in Crestwood, Missouri USA owned by the Busch family of the beer fame. The horses were gated to pull the Budweiser wagons and so I never saw them run. Love the picture
