Of course, the Monday after daylight savings time shift, I had to drive to St. Augustine and film some interviews. I really could have used the extra hour of sleep!
But on the plus side I got to meet a horse-sized dog, and several horses, as well as several dog-sized miniature horses.
I’m lucky that work throws me these odd encounters occasionally.
