  • John Henry?

    I debated about whether I should post this because (1) I'm categorically opposed to asking questions since they steal 5 points from me and (2) this isn't really a question. But I couldn't find an appropriate place to put this in an answer so I decided to waste the 5 points for the first and probably only time.

    I had the pleasure of visiting John Henry in August... I think it was actually 2 months ago tomorrow. They no longer asked him to come into the hall of champions ring, but we could stand by his stall. I had apple pieces that I stealthily fed to him out of my pocket ;o) He was looking a little skinny and he was clearly very old, but he was doing quite well. even well enough to pin his ears at the girl who was trying to halter him to take him for a walk! I took some pictures and thought that I should share with all of you. I hope you enjoy them.

    and just to make this a question: what's your favorite John Henry memory?
