Horse, Plymouth Beach, Plymouth, Massachusetts, USA

I don't see this too often but, now that the summer crowds are mostly gone, I guess it is a great time to take your horse to the beach.  He/she tentatively pawed (hoofed?) at the water's edge a few times before venturing out to knee depth then turned back and walked in the shallow surf.  It looked like the rider was letting the horse determine the course but it's hard to tell what subtle cues may have passed between the two.

I think a horse might be a better kid-magnet than a dog! They came running from all directions with daddies in tow to touch his/her muzzle from on tip-toe and stare upward at the huge gentle creature.
