December 13 is National Horse Day and that gives me the opportunity to share one of my fav vintage photos: A Christmas tree for horses hung with "apples, ears of corn and other horse dainties". Way to appreciate your transportation! :) The horses also got nose bags. This is 1918 in Washington DC - but I think all horses today deserve the same treatment.
