Unicorn and Pegasus
Housing

My imaginary place is a barn for Unicorns and Pegasi. This wonderful, colorful place is located in Yorktown, Indiana on the road called 725. This place is magical and only certain people can see it. Mostly, the owner and elves. This barn has dark oak trunks in the corners so you can only see them from the outside. It has blue stained wood for the walls to make it more whimsical. It has 40 stalls, twenty on each side of the arena in the middle. The stalls are 15x15 so the Pegasi can stretch out their wings comfortably. The stall has bars in the front and sides of the stall. There is a hook on the outside to hang your halter on. There is a wooden stall door that has a black latch with a clasp so that the horses can’t get out. When you walk in the stall, in the left corner there is a box to put the hay and grain in. in the back left corner there is an automatic waterer. This machine puts water in the bowl if the horse pushes down. In the back right corner hangs a salt lick. Horses need to lick this in the winter so they get thirsty and drink water. Then in the middle of the floor is the shavings

On every other stall there is crossties so you can groom your horse and tack it up. The tack room is fairly large for the amount of riders. The walls are made of wood and are stained very dark. The door into the tack room is a sliding barn door and says “Tack Room” on it. On the left wall hangs a food chart while just below it sits the different feeds. On the wall opposite the door, are saddle racks where you can put your saddles and keep them organized. Just below the saddles are the tack boxes which hold anything from extra saddles, leg wraps, and human boots to blankets and treats. On the right wall are the bridle hooks where you hang your bridle to keep it looking nice. On the wall just to you right when you walk in there are more saddle racks and tack

    Horses are subject to varying depictions in All the Pretty Horses. The most archaic portrayal is their representation as tools. To ranchers, horses are a necessity they use them to travel and herd cattle. Yet, horses are also pictured as having a basic emotional similarity as humans; they both experience the primitive emotion of fear.

    One way that Anna Sewell developed the horse is through description. In the text in paragraph 2 the author wrote, “Those who have never had a bit in their mouths cannot know how bad it feels; a great piece of cold hard steel as thick as a man’s finger to be pushed into one’s mouth, between one’s teeth, over one’s tongue.” In this part of the text, the author is describing how the bit feels in her mouth. Here she uses description to describe how horrific the bit really is and how uncomfortable it is to have it stuck in your mouth. Also, in paragraph 3 of the text, the author wrote, “ Next came the saddle, but that was not half so bad; my master put it on my back very gently, while old Daniel held my head; he then made the girths fast under my body patting and talking to me all the time.”…

    The Devil and Tom Walker, and Young Goodman Brown are two works of literature that were written a good amount of time ago. Both works of literature incorporate random parts in them that I thought could go back to Mary Rowlandson. The two stories have a lot in common as well as many differences. The conflict in Tom Walker was that he didn't want to die, and for the devil to take his soul. The conflict in Young Goodman Brown was that everyone around him had been tempted by the devil.…

    As a farmer’s wealth increased, so too did their land acreage and number of slaves. Approximately five to six percent of slave holders amassed a degree of wealth that allowed them to develop their farms into complex plantation systems. Unlike the typical farmer in rural areas, a large plantation complex as it existed in the 18th and 19th centuries had the characteristics of an agricultural corporation and functioned as such with the plantation owner as the CEO that employed overseers to manage his crops and slaves. Most plantation owners had more than 50 slaves; an additional one percent of slave holders operated plantations that held 500 to 1,000 slaves. Although cotton, tobacco, rice, and wheat, were the primary crops grown on a plantation,…

My thoughts racing in my head as I reached for her halter and lead from the hanger on the tack room wall.
