I got this in an e-mail.

Did you hear about the horses that were trapped for 3 days on a tiny
piece of land in wind and rain in the Netherlands? Apparently it had
the nation mesmerized, watching about 100 horses huddle against the
wind and having to watch 18 of them die. First firemen, then the Dutch
army, tried to rescue them - both unsuccessfully. So 4 WOMEN on
horseback rode out to the rescue. Here's a video of it. Leave it to
the women.

I was sent this video awhile back by a friend. It is one I never get tired of watching. The rescue of these horses was planned by 4 women when no one else could find a way to do it. They were the ones on the horses leading the rescue. Amazing what a womans love of life can do.

That's amazing! See what just a little bit of initative can do? It didn't even look like the water was that deep...

I loved the trotting action of that dark horse at the head of herd too, very showy. :)

I know, it's beautiful isn't it? It looks like it could be put in a movie or something. It must have been breathtaking to be there and see it with your own eyes.

Very cool to watch......I also enjoyed the choice in sound track, it put the right amount of drama!
