Farrier

The farrier visited the stables to shoe a poorly horse in the next stall. I have seen it done on TV but never for real. It was  amazing to watch the mans skill with materials and the horse. The main is the fitting burning the shoe in and the extra is the cooled finished article awaiting fixing. it doesn't hurt the horse apparently, Jo reassured me of the fact and the horse didn't flinch the whole way through.
